A Blayney man has stunned his wife with the news he’d uncovered a staggering $100,000 Instant Scratch-Its top prize, nearly causing her to pass out with excitement.

The New South Welshman’s winning $5 Treasure Island Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at Blayney Newsagency, 130 Adelaide Street, Blayney.

“I’ve never won something like this,” the winning man laughed.

“When I first showed my wife I told her, ‘I think I’ve just won $100,000!’ and she didn’t believe me at all.

“When she had a closer look, she realised I wasn’t joking and screamed, ‘Oh f***!’.

“We both didn’t think something like this could happen to us.

“It just didn’t feel real. It still doesn’t feel real.

“This has come at the perfect time as we’re looking at getting a new house.

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

Blayney Newsagency manager Sharryn Kearney said she was thrilled to sell another top prize-winning Instant Scratch-Its and had already begun celebrating in-store.

“We’re so happy to have another one of our customers win a life-enhancing prize,” she cheered.

“We sold our last top prize-winning Instant Scratch-Its in September, so it feels like we’re on a bit of a winning run.

“As soon as we found out about the win, we decorated the store from floor to ceiling to celebrate.

“Congratulations to our winner and we hope you really enjoy the win.”
