Velma Molnar and Anthony Catonio, of Langley, are trading in snow and turkey for sand and lobster after Lotto 6/49 win this week.

Velma Molnar and Anthony Catonio can indulge in some daydreaming after winning the Guaranteed $1 Million Prize on the Nov. 5, Lotto 6/49 draw.

“I feel like my head is in ‘Cloud 6/49,’” exclaimed Molnar. “This is the best day of my life. Anything is possible!”

The pair from Langley is now planning a big shopping spree and a long vacation.

“I’m going to buy a house and travel to Mexico,” smiled Catonio. “We’re going to trade snow and turkey for sand and lobster this Christmas!”

Molnar also has her sights set on  new wheels.

“I’m thinking a new red convertible and a pair of red leather driving gloves.”

The winning ticket was purchased at Rusty’s Neighbourhood Pub in Surrey.
