A pair of Camden sisters have shared a heart-warming moment after their long-standing Instant Scratch-Its tradition delivered them a marvellous $100,000 top prize win.
 
The duo’s winning $5 Double Match Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at Camden Newsagency, 130 Argyle Street, Camden.
 
The cheery sisters shared that upon discovering their win, they were completely speechless for five minutes, dumbfounded by the enormity of their win, before bursting into fits of laughter.  
 
“We’re still dumbfounded!” one of the winning sisters shared.
 
“It has been such a whirlwind since we discovered our win.
 
“My sister and I have a ritual of meeting up and sharing an Instant Scratch-Its ticket each week.
 
“It was just the other day; we were at a café enjoying a ticket when we scratched our way to the big win.
 
“I couldn’t talk for five minutes – I was completely speechless.
 
“We just kept giggling and saying to each other, ‘This can’t be real?!’.
 
“It’s just terrific! There’s lots of little things we’ll be able to do with the prize.
 
“We’re going to start with getting our passports updated.
 
“Believe it or not, we’re going to keep up our weekly ritual. We just love it too much!”
 
Camden Newsagency manager Kate Robbins shared she was overjoyed to hear a local customer had won a top prize just in time for Christmas.
 
“Our entire team is feeling very excited to hear we sold a top prize-winning ticket worth $100,000,” she said.
 
“We’re always overjoyed to hear that one of our local customers has won.
 
“We’ve sold many top prize tickets over the years – we’ve had a lot of success.
