Thanks to a Scratch 'n Win lottery ticket she played on her coffee break, Cara Williams will be able to take an even more relaxing break. The Weyburn woman is eyeing possible vacations after she uncovered a $100,000 windfall!

Cara bought a $20 Puzzle Book ticket, which contains eight games, from Zippy Mart in Weyburn and she scratched it on her break at work. She was shocked when she uncovered a $100,000 win.

"I started scratching the easy games. After I saw I'd won, I was too excited to continue

scratching, so a lot of the games didn't get scratched," she remembered.

Unable to believe her eyes, Cara first called her husband and then asked her father to come out and take a look at the ticket. Finally, she took it to a nearby lottery retailer and had the ticket confirmed as a $100,000 winner.

Cara said she plans to put some of her prize towards her children's educations, pay bills and invest and possibly do some travelling.

"I've always wanted to go to Hawaii with my husband and take the children to Disney World," she said.
