A woman has lost her faith in clairvoyants after one predicted she would never come into a large sum of money - a week before she won $40,000 on a Lotto scratch card.
The Wanganui woman says she consulted a clairvoyant in Wellington two weeks ago and was told that neither she nor her mother would ever win big.
"Then I was at home scratching a $3 Cloud Nine crossword ticket and thought I had won $1000 and had completed nine words.
"But I realised I'd missed a couple of letters and revealed a 10th word and a $40,000 prize.
"I laughed when I thought about what the clairvoyant had said, and when I rang my mum to tell her what I'd won, we were in fits of laughter," she said.
