Vincent Haynes collected a $3.2 million Super Lotto cheque yesterday, saying he was doing so on behalf of a “close family member”.
He revealed that the winner’s intentions were to take care of her children’s education, build her dream home and take regular vacations.
The woman, whom he said was a middle-aged mother of two, was delighted and called her million-dollar winning a wonderful Christmas gift.
According to Haynes, the winner said she would not stop playing the lottery since “you have to be in it to win it”.
Lisa Jackman-Corbin, regional lead brand manager, pointed out that over the last year four Barbadians won the Super Lotto.
“We have been making millionaires for the past few years. 2013 has been a lucky year for Barbadians – we had four Super Lotto winners in 2013 alone,” she said. (LW/NW)
