The New Year took a quick turn for the better for one Melville couple.

Kelly Klus was settling in for the evening on Jan.1 and started playing a Western Millions Scratch N’ Win ticket while her partner, Kevin Tank, chose a movie.

It was then she saw something she had never seen before – a $1-million win.

They didn’t wait long before heading to the store and verifying they were, in fact, $1 million richer.

The couple were revealed as Saskatchewan’s newest millionaires at a news conference in Regina on – wait for it – Friday, Jan. 13.

Klus and Tank said they plan to put some money away for a comfortable retirement, but they also plan to enjoy some of their good fortune now.

Tank purchased the winning plyer choice mega pack at Prairie Co-operative Ltd. in Melville.

Melville is located around 50 kilometres southwest of Yorkton.
