KELVINGTON — Saskatchewan’s newest The Bigger Spin winner is Asha Bishop from Kelvington.
The Kelvington local was thrilled to discover The Bigger Spin Scratch & Win ticket she purchased had won $10,000.
“I took my little boy to the park on the same day I purchased the ticket,” Bishop said at the initial prize claim interview. “He was running around the store, so I didn’t have time to process the win—I thought maybe I won a t-shirt or something at first. I just love watching it spin on the display!”
When Bishop discovered in store that she had also won a Spin Win—a chance to play The Bigger Spin wheel in person at a live event of her very own—she was stunned.
“I was in shock,” she said. “[The display] said ‘Major Winner,’ and I was just thinking ‘Oh cool!’ I didn't think I'd be winning ten grand!”
On June 5, Bishop stepped up to The Bigger Spin wheel and won a $600,000 prize!
After spinning and winning $600,000 in front of family and friends, Bishop shared her first order of business: “I'm going to take my son shopping and get him some toys that he wants!”
The Kelvington winner is also considering how to treat herself with the windfall.
“I'll probably buy a car,” she smiled. “And I want to take my family on a vacation.”
“It doesn't feel real yet!”
Bishop purchased her winning The Bigger Spin Scratch & Win ticket at Co-op located at 201 1 Ave W in Kelvington.
