A lucky person who bought their Saturday night Lotto ticket in Donegal is about to get the best weekend news after winning the highest prize.
Newtowncunningham convenience store Kernans Eurospar has revealed that they sold the winning ticket for a top total of €284,964.
The player matched 5 numbers and a bonus to get the second tier windfall. There was no winner of the €5.3 million jackpot this week.
Could it be you? Have you checked your ticket yet? The Saturday (21st April) draw numbers are:
9 – 12 – 19 – 20 – 29 – 36 Bonus: 7
Players can check their tickets using the National Lottery App or online at http://Lottery.ie
There are plenty of celebrations at Kernans Newtowncunningham today after this announcement. Sharing the news on Facebook last night, they said:
“We have just received news from the national lottery head quarters that we sold a Winning Ticket!
“One of our lucky customers in Kernans Eurospar Newtowncunningham has Matched 5 + bonus in tonights draw winning a total of… €284,964.00
“Congratulations from all at Kernans!!!!”
It was a good week to have a Donegal winner, as the National Lottery is celebrating the 30 year anniversary of the first ever Lotto win.
Back in April 1998, Letterkenny widow Brigid McGrath won £147,059 (punts) – the equivalent of €2 million in today’s money. Her ticket was bought at Proctor’s Newsagents in Letterkenny, Co. Donegal. That jackpot brought great benefit to Brigid’s community, and another Donegal person is set to get another boost after last night’s win!
