We can鈥檛 tell you if Barry Manning of Courtenay is a millionaire.

We can tell you he is at least halfway there.

Manning is $500,000 richer after winning the Extra on the June 21, 2017 Lotto 6/49 and BC/49 draws.

According to a media release from the B.C. Lottery corporation, Manning routinely goes to the store to pick up his weekly household items, along with his $20 Mega Pack that includes a Lotto 6/49 and BC/49 ticket plus the Extra. However, his last visit was anything but routine.

鈥淚 couldn鈥檛 believe that I won $500,000. I had to check it three times!鈥� said Manning in the release.

Manning has plans to share his winnings with his family and hopes to do some traveling with his wife.

鈥淚 always dream about winning big,鈥� exclaimed Manning. 鈥淭ravel has always been on my list and I can do more of that now!鈥�

The winning ticket was purchased at Walmart on Cliff Avenue in Courtenay.
