If you bought a Lotto 6/49 ticket here in Calgary last week, you may want to consider taking the day off, and tomorrow, and the day after that.

The winning ticket, worth about $25 million, was sold somewhere in Calgary according to the Western Canada Lottery Corporation.

However, a WCLC spokesperson says it could take up to a few months for the winner to get their windfall as it takes some time to process the paper work.
