Co-op members luck out thanks to missing sauerkraut

REGINA — The winner of the $100,000 grand prize in Federated Co-operatives’ Fuel Up to Win promotion can thank her husband’s oversight. When David Woitas forgot to buy a jar of sauerkraut on a grocery expedition at Sherwood Co-op, his wife Carol went to the store to get it and ended up receiving the seventh game piece needed to win. More than $8.5 million in prizes and discounts were available to Co-op customers in this year’s Fuel Up to Win contest, which was held March 5 to April 29. The grand prize is awarded whether or not all game tickets are found, but Co-op customers have found the single winning game piece in four of the last five years. The Woitases will use some of the money to invest in renovations, with the rest going into retirement savings.
