One lucky player is now over half a million euro richer after matching five numbers and one lucky star in last nights (Tuesday) Euromillions draw.
The winning amount of €625,081 was scooped by somebody in County Galway while a second player in County Louth also struck it lucky, matching five numbers to win the tidy sum of €14,609.
The Galway player purchased their winning Quick Pick ticket on the day of the draw from Eurospar in Carraroe, Co. Galway. Remarkably, this store is no stranger to big wins – it also sold a €7 million Lotto jackpot ticket last November.
Adding to the excitement, a second Irish player in Louth matched five numbers to win a handsome €14,609. Their Quick Pick ticket was bought at Dunnes Stores Dundalk, Ard Easmuinn, Dundalk, Co. Louth.
The winning numbers from last nights draw were –
24, 38, 41, 45, 49
and the Lucky Stars were
1
and
6
.
While there was no outright winner of the EuroMillions
jackpot
worth €96,858,365, in total, over 40,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games, including the two winners in Galway and Louth.
