There was a whole ‘lotto luck across the country last night.
There’s a new millionaire in Ireland after Friday night’s EuroMillions draw – and two more players won €500,000.
Talk about a very happy start to the Christmas season.
Every EuroMillions line bought in Ireland has a unique Ireland-0nly raffle code, from which 10 are drawn to win €5,000 in each standard draw.
However, this week’s draws will see each of the 10 Ireland-Only raffle winners receiving the usual €5,000 and they’ll also be placed in another draw to be in with the chance to win a life-changing €1 million.
And while there’s been no word just yet as to where the ticket was sold, the winning ticket number has been revealed: I-HKS-43344.
One lucky ticket holder has just got that Friday feeling! ???
