Friday’s EuroMillions jackpot set to roll to €30 million (est)
Euromillions players in Gorey are today being urged to check their tickets carefully from last night’s draw after a Sunny South East player matched five numbers and one lucky star to win an incredible €122,344. The Wexford winner purchased their winning Quick Pick ticket at Hammel’s Centra in the village of Kilmuckridge in Gorey, Co. Wexford.
The winning numbers for the Tuesday 8th March draw were: 12, 18, 21, 25, 31 and lucky stars 02, 09.
Store owner Shay Hammell was thrilled to hear that one of his customers was the biggest winner in Tuesday night’s draw: “The entire team working in the store will be delighted to hear that one of our customers has come into some good luck! Back in December 2020, we had another big EuroMillions win when we sold a ticket worth €500,000 in the EuroMillions Plus draw. It’s great to hear of another customer now enjoying a big win. I’m sure we’ll see lots of our locals eager to check their tickets now as news spreads around the town – we wish the winner all the very best and hope they realise soon just how much their ticket is now worth!”
The Wexford winner is advised to sign the back of their ticket, which is now worth €122,344, and keep it safe. The winner should make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize.
As there was no winner of the €17 million jackpot on offer in Tuesday night’s draw, Friday’s jackpot is now set to roll to an estimated €30 million.
