A Christmas Instant Scratch-Its gift has led to an incredible festive fiesta for a Whyalla Norrie couple who discovered they’d won $10,000.

The top prize winning $1 Christmas Gift Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at Westland Newsagency, Shop 17 Westland Shopping Centre, Nicholson Avenue, Whyalla Norrie.

“We were gifted a whole bunch of Instant Scratch-Its tickets for Christmas and loved scratching away at them on Christmas Day!” the winning woman said when confirming her win with an official from The Lott.

“There were a few free ticket wins in there, so when we got a chance, we headed into an outlet and grabbed a few more.

“Low and behold, one of those free tickets turned into $10,000!

“I was pretty damn surprised! It feels like a Christmas miracle!

“It couldn’t have come at a better time. My car needs some extensive work done on it, but it’s also going to allow us to have a nice holiday!

“What a way to end the year!”

The team at Westland Newsagency wished their winner all the best for 2023 and said they were over the moon to have sold a top prize-winning Instant Scratch-Its ticket during the festive season.
