It seems luck was in the air this weekend, as eight people in Alberta are walking away with some life-changing lottery prizes.

The Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC) says someone in Alberta took home Lotto Max’s second-top prize on Friday, November 29. The $355,128.90-winning ticket was purchased somewhere in the province (outside of Calgary and/or Edmonton) and matched six of the seven Main draw numbers and the Bonus number: 6, 17, 26, 29, 30, 39, and 49, and the Bonus, 2.

The good luck didn’t stop there — someone in the province won one of the 21 Maxmillions draws, sharing the prize with a ticket purchased somewhere in Quebec. The $500,000-winning ticket matched the numbers 7, 12, 17, 24, 28, 45 and 48.

When it comes to Lotto 6/49 tickets, a whopping four Albertans won $25,000Ā each on the Saturday, November 30Ā Lotto 6/49 SuperDraw. The winning numbers were (exact match only):

  • 36347677-01
  • 36636313-01
  • 37208821-02
  • 38535665-01

Alberta was also a hot spot for Extra on Friday, November 29. The WCLC says two Albertans won $100,000 each after matching the last six digits of the Extra number, 1709796.
