£5.6m win won't stop Asda habit

Checkout supervisor Sue Stebbings, 43, of Lowestoft, Suffolk, said she planned to spend some of her 5,629 964 windfall on holidays, cars and a boat – but would not change her weekly shopping habit.

Mrs Stebbings, who earns 12,000 a year, said she would take a 12-month career break from her job with Asda in Lowestoft but aimed to return to work.

She said she had so far spent 1,206.30 – 1,200 on a pre-Christmas break in Tenerife and 6.30 on a new Asda shirt and tie for husband Richard, 46.

The couple said they also planned to pay off the mortgage on their three-bedroom detached house and secure the futures of their daughter Vicky, 20, and son Charlie, 17.

Mrs Stebbings said: "I will continue to do my shopping at Asda. I can still use my 10 per cent staff discount card and I will. Old habits die hard. We used it to get 70p discount on Richard's shirt."
