Couple takes home $500K

A Kamloops couple is half a million dollars richer after winning the March 18 Lotto Max draw.

Jessica Sandry and her boyfriend Michael Ellis only recently started playing the lottery.

“I’m shocked we won because this is only the tenth ticket I have ever bought,” said Ellis.

Ellis bought the ticket while passing through Kelowna for work.

The couple has no immediate plans for the money, but is looking towards the future.

“We don’t plan on buying anything right now,” said Sandry. “We’re going to pay off our mortgage and invest some of the money.”
