A FORMER Hampshire supermarket worker who won a £5.6m National Lottery jackpot said today that she would continue shopping at Asda with her ten per cent staff discount card.

Checkout supervisor Sue Stebbings, 43, said she planned to spend some of her £5,629,964 windfall from a Lucky Dip ticket 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 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, who moved from Portsmouth to Lowestoft in Suffolk five years ago, 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.

Mr Stebbings is a former chief petty officer in the Royal Navy.

"I will take a year out but I would like to go back to work. I think I'd be bored at home,'' said Mrs Stebbings.

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

"We'll be having a normal family Christmas. Maybe a few more presents. Vicky gets a free turkey from the gym where she works and all the trimmings will be Asda-price as usual."
