A EuroMillions player in neighbouring Laois has woken up half a million euro richer after they scooped the EuroMillions Plus Top Prize of €500,000 in last night's draw.
The player purchased their winning Quick Pick ticket the day before the draw at Daybreak, Main Street, Borris-in-Ossory on Monday, May 13.
The winning numbers in the Tuesday, May14 EuroMillions Plus draw were: 10, 14, 22, 44 and 47.
The National Lottery are urging players to check their tickets carefully as the winner, who now has a ticket worth €500,000, is yet to make contact.
Last night’s win came as a great surprise to Store Manager Kate Brennan, who was delighted to hear their store sold the winning ticket in the Tuesday night draw.
“This is the biggest prize that we have ever sold so there has been lots of excitement ever since we posted the news on our social media first thing this morning. We’re located on the old road between Dublin and Limerick so the winner really could be anyone. Here’s hoping they check their ticket soon!
All of the staff were thrilled to hear that this is the biggest prize we’ve ever sold. Let’s hope the winning continues and maybe there will be even more phone calls from the National Lottery in the near future," she said.
National Lottery spokesperson Sarah Ruane had some advice for the winner.
“We are appealing to all of our players who may have purchased a ticket at the Daybreak, Main Street, Borris-in-Ossory, Co Laois to check their tickets carefully today as one player has a prize worth an incredible €500,000 waiting for them.
