Life-changing moment when man tells girlfriend they're millionaires
A County Down bank worker nipped out to the supermarket for a few items for dinner and returned a millionaire. The Scratchcard winner rushed home excited to tell his girlfriend the news - and she refused to believe him!
Martin McKenna said, "As soon as I walked through the door she was holding a big pot of spaghetti so I told her to put it down, that I had some news for her. She saw by my face that something wasn't right and immediately thought I had something bad to tell her. However, when I told her that I'd just won £1,000,000 on a scratchcard she just couldn’t believe it – in fact she didn't."
It took a visit from two friends to check the Scratchcard to convince girlfriend Ceri that they were millionaires and now the couple are enjoying creating a millionaire spending plan. "I want to buy a new house, clear my debts and treat my family and friends. I've also always wanted to own a Volkswagen car so I will be visiting a showroom as soon as I can to buy one for myself and one for Ceri."
Martin bought the Millionaire 777 Red Scratchcard, with another when out shopping. He continued, "I scratched one first and was delighted to see that I had won £20. I decided to collect the money so I joined the queue again and whilst waiting to be served I scratched the Millionaire 777 Red Scratchcard and was stunned when it revealed that I'd won a whopping £1,000,000!"
