To the winner, whoever you are... do you need a new best friend?

According to the National Lottery, someone out there has purchased a winning ticket, and still haven't called to collect their winnings. The ticket was purchased in the Tesco Metro store at Rathmines Road Upper, and it was a Lotto Plus 1 ticket now worth €500,000! Connor Tully, the Store Manager at Tesco Rathmines Metro, said today: “We are delighted to have sold the winning ticket. There’s a great atmosphere in store with colleagues and customers checking their tickets – it’s all anyone is talking about. We’re excited to find out who the winner is and congratulate them.” A spokesperson for the Lotto is urging players in Dublin to check their numbers to see if they are the holders of the lucky ticket. And in case you need reminding of what those numbers were: 15, 19, 21, 30, 34, 45 and Bonus no 11. Similarly, players in the West of Ireland are also being asked to check their tickets, where yet another winner has yet to come forward. A winning ticket was sold in Carey’s newsagents in Belmullet, Co. Mayo, a shop which is on a lucky run having clocked up six top prize wins in a National Lottery game. That winner got a Match 5 + Bonus winning pot of €370,312, and again, if you need to check your ticket for this particular set, the winning Lotto numbers are: 1, 19, 22, 26, 44, 45 and Bonus 35. So get checking, everyone! And again... if you're in the market for a new BFF... We're just sayin'...
