Saskatoon, SK – Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC) is pleased to announce a Vault Breaker jackpot prize awarded by the Saskatchewan VLT program. Karrie Kkailther of Fond du Lac was awarded $1,254,350.87 after winning the grand jackpot on Vault Breaker at Travelodge Hotel in Saskatoon on April 9.
“I was shocked and confused. I didn’t know how much I won – I had to run to my boyfriend to ask how much it really was!” Kkailther said.
A couple of days after her win, Kkailther said she is still feeling the surprise: “I’m still shocked it’s real!”
Kkailther said she hasn’t made any big plans for her windfall, but she has a few ideas to get started.
“I’d like to invest and look at houses,” she explained. “I’d also like to help my family grow.”
