Saying "yes" to Encore has paid off for a Grimsby woman!

In the January 12th draw, Paula Weber matched the last six of seven numbers, winning $100,000.

The 55 year old teacher says she's an occasional lottery player and only buys a few tickets a year.

Her and her husband celebrated the win with a steak dinner.

She says she has no plans for the money as of yet.

"There are so many things we could spend this on, but I think I’ll save this for now and make decisions once the world settles into our new normal."
