A resident of Dublin has woken up to an incredible windfall of €500,000 after hitting the jackpot in the EuroMillions Plus draw on Friday night. Residents of Clonsilla, in particular, are advised to meticulously check their tickets as this lucky win marks the ninth top prize collected in 2024 alone.
The fortunate winner now stands as the third Dublin player to claim this substantial sum this year, joining fellow ecstatic winners from Tipperary, Cork, Wicklow (2), Kilkenny, and Laois. The life-changing winning Quick Pick ticket was bought on the day of the draw at Tesco Ireland, Clonsilla, situated in Roselawn, Dublin 15. The numbers that led to this momentous victory were 31, 37, 38, 39, and 48.
Lotto officials have advised the winner to immediately sign the back of their ticket and keep it in a secure location. It’s crucial for the winner to reach out to the prize claims team by dialing 1800 666 222 or sending an email to [email protected]. The National Lottery will then provide details on how to go about collecting the prize at Lotto HQ.
This significant win caps off a remarkably successful week for the National Lottery, which saw five people become millionaires over a span of just seven days.
Commenting on the extraordinary week of winnings, National Lottery spokesperson Sarah Ruane said, “It’s been the most memorable week of wins we’ve experienced in the National Lottery.
