Abbotsford\u2019s Sarbjit and Ramesh are planning to say goodbye to land for a little while after winning $100,000 from a $10 scratch-and-win ticket.<\/p>\n
The married couple recently found out about their major prize, sending Sarbjit into a whirlwind of excitement.<\/p>\n
\u201cI scanned it with the app, then had to scan it again to make sure there were no mistakes,\u201d said Sarbjit.<\/p>\n
\u201cI called Ramesh, then sent screenshots to the children. Everyone thought it was a lie at first.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now that they\u2019re $100,000 richer, the couple plans to go out and enjoy some fancy restaurants and embark on a few cruises.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are blessed and happy,\u201d said Ramesh, who is the recipient of the first major BC Lottery Corporation win in Abbotsford since September 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Abbotsford couple hitting the open seas after $100K lottery win Published 3:40 pm Thursday, April 30, 2026 Abbotsford\u2019s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":639637,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194299],"tags":[49,48,163792,87674],"class_list":["post-639636","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-surrey","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-lower-mainland","tag-surrey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639636","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=639636"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639636\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/639637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=639636"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=639636"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=639636"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
