An Alberta woman is delighted with her recent lotto win.

Georgina Ross from St. Albert matched five of the six winning numbers on the February 1 Lotto 6/49 draw, resulting in a cool $109,239.49 win.

She bought her ticket from a Circle K in Edmonton just hours before the draw. A few days later, she was with her daughter, who asked to scan her ticket.

ā€œI was shocked,ā€ she said when her daughter informed her she had a winning ticket.

Ross plans to hold onto her windfall for the time being.

ā€œI’m going to put it in the bank.ā€
