I’ve worked with Applegreen for 17 years and I’ve been manager in the station here in Naas for the last five years. This is by far the biggest win we’ve ever had in the store. We just can’t believe one of our customers woke up this morning half a million euro richer! What a lovely surprise to get. We’ve lots of regular customers who come in everyday, so I really hope it’s one of them. It’s just a dream come true to win an amount like that and we’re delighted for whoever has won it.
