A woman from St. Catharines is celebrating a big win.

Lynn Daniel is $1 million richer after winning the top Instant Ultimate prize in the December 31st draw.

The 42 year old says she has played the lottery regularly for 20 years, and she can't believe her luck.

"It’s an incredible feeling. I felt my heart rate rise, and then almost felt like I was in a trance," she said, describing the moment she knew she won big. "I never thought a win like this would happen. It’s shocking."

Lynn says she plans to save some of the money and go on vacation.

According to the OLG, the winning ticket was bought at 7-Eleven on Lake Street in St. Catharines.
