Saguenay resident Nathalie Roussy experienced an unforgettable moment of luck on October 9, 2025, when she discovered she had won $1,000,000 in the Lotto 6/49 draw on October 8.
Using the Loto-Québec app to check her ticket, Nathalie was greeted by a shower of confetti and a string of zeros that left her speechless. Overcome with emotion, she turned her phone off and back on again just to make sure she wasn’t dreaming.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes! It was $1,000,000!” she said, quickly sharing the incredible news with her spouse.
Nathalie then went to Familiprix Marianne Paré pharmacy at 171 6e rue in the La Baie area — where she purchased her winning ticket — to have it validated. The pharmacy staff celebrated the moment with her, adding to the joy of the life-changing win.
The win comes just in time for plans Nathalie had already made for a trip, which she can now enjoy even more fully. Her winning ticket also earns the retailer a 1% commission of $10,000.
For Nathalie, the sudden fortune is a dream come true — a moment of excitement and celebration she will remember forever.
