€500,000 EuroMillions Plus prize won in Mullingar

EuroMillions players in Mullingar are being urged to check their tickets carefully today after one lucky player scooped the €500,000 EuroMillions Plus top prize in last night’s draw.

The lucky ticket holder bought their winning Quick Pick ticket on Monday, March 29, at the Centra store at the Robinstown Texaco garage in Mullingar.

The EuroMillions Plus numbers for last night’s draw (Tuesday March 30) were: 08, 16, 17, 20, 39.

The winning ticket holder is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to get in touch with the National Lottery claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize.

Store manager, Warrick McDonald, was delighted to hear the news that one of his customers was the luckiest EuroMillions player in Ireland last night.

“Our shop is at the centre of a close-knit community so it’s great to hear that it could be a local winner who has come into half a million euro since last night.

“We have a lot of regular customers who visit our shop on a daily basis so we’re certain that there will be plenty excitement today as the good news spreads. Hopefully the lucky winner has realised their good luck by now and can start to enjoy their win as soon as possible.”

Last night’s result marks the seventh EuroMillions Plus top prize win of the year to date.

While there were over 65,000 winners in Ireland in last night’s EuroMillions draw, there was no overall winner of the €128,213,947 jackpot on offer. The EuroMillions jackpot will now roll to an estimated €145 million for Friday night’s draw.
