The Euromillions has been the talk of the country this week.
An Irish ticket won the €88.5 million jackpot on Tuesday and naturally enough, everyone was eager to find out where it was sold.
Originally, it was thought that a Cork syndicate were in the money, but it’s now been confirmed that the ticket was sold in an Applegreen shop in Lusk, Co.Dublin.
According to reports, the ticket holders have been in touch with the National Lottery and the massive jackpot will be available for collection from Wednesday next.
Imagine that celebration.
Apple Green lusk has lowered its fuel prices to 88.5 c per litre for a limited time and unsurprisingly, the shop is mayhem.
