Lottery-Win

A couple from Saint John has won the $1-million grand prize in the Atlantic 49 lottery draw on the weekend.
Linda DeFazio and Gary King say they plan to buy a new car and go on a cruise.

DeFazio says she brought the ticket into the store to be checked Sunday morning and the cashier ran it through the machine twice, thinking it was broken when it showed the big win.

DeFazio says she loves her job at the Value Village discount store and has no plans to quit.
