Jacques Joly of Sudbury is dreaming big after winning a $75,000 top prize with INSTANT CASH CARD.

“My wife and I both bought each other lottery tickets for our 36th anniversary,” said Jacques, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his cheque.

“We opened a bottle of wine and played our tickets. I couldn’t believe I won!”

This is the second major win for the couple in the past year. In the spring, Jacques, a retiree, won $100,000 with INSTANT HIGH ROLLER.

“What a wonderful anniversary present! We can now go places we have only dreamed about. We’ll start in the East Coast, or maybe Quebec City,” said Jacques.

INSTANT CASH CARD is available for $3 a play and the top prize is $75,000. Odds of winning a prize are 1 in 3.52.

The winning ticket was purchased at Mac’s on Lasalle Boulevard in Sudbury.
