PRINCE GEORGE —A Prince George couple has $500,000 reasons to be happy after winning a $500,000 Extra prize from the February 15, 2024 Daily Grand Draw.

Shawna and Jason Eberle purchased their ticket at Save-On-Foods on Austin Road West.

“I checked the ticket with the retailer and I couldn’t believe it,” says Shawna.

As for how Jason reacted when Shawna texted him a photo of the win?

“I didn’t really know how to react, but I thought she was probably passed out on the floor from shock,” Jason recalled with a laugh.
