Princess Margaret Home Lottery Winner Tammie Pinnock

The Princess Margaret Hospital Home Lottery is a popular lottery draw in and around the Toronto area. It offers some amazing top prizes with relatively good odds because only a limited number of tickets are sold.

Tammie Pinnock works for City TV in Toronto. She works for the TV station as a news writer. City TV has a morning show called Breakfast Television where they do the Princess Margaret Home Lottery draw live. Tammie Pinnock might have actually been in the studio while the draw was taking place. She had bought a ticket, so she would have been interested in the draw. And, as luck would have it, Tammie actually won the grand prize.

Tammie Pinnock's prize consisted of a 6,226 square foot mansion in Woodbridge, Ontario (20 minutes from Toronto), a 2009 BMW 323i, and $10,000 in cash. The total prize was worth $2.6 million.

Tammie Pinnock says she just couldn't believe that she had won. She had never in her life even been in such a big house and she says that her entire apartment could fit into the kitchen; that's how big the house really is!
