The woman said she barely slept after finding out she won.
“It still hasn’t sunk in!” she said.
“It’s a surreal feeling knowing I’ve won.
“Never in a million years did I ever think I would’ve won $100,000.
“I honestly haven’t been sleeping well since I scratched the ticket. I keep thinking it might be a dream.
“Even today when I went in to claim my prize, I still thought I might’ve made a mistake.
“I know I’ll use most of it toward my mortgage, which feels great.
“I’m going to surprise my sister with something nice too.”
Gurmit Singh, owner of the kiosk said he was over the moon to discover his outlet had sold its first $100,000 Instant Scratch-Its ticket.
