While many were enjoying Halloween celebrations on Saturday night, one Galway player received a prize worth €73,687 after matching five numbers and the bonus in the Lotto draw.
The weekend winner purchased their winning Quick Pick ticket on Friday, October 30 at Spar, Tuam Road, Mountbellew, Co. Galway.
The winning numbers in the Saturday 31st October Lotto draw were: 05, 07, 11, 20, 23, 26 and the bonus was 36.
The winner is advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe. They should contact the Prize Claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lotttery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to collect their prize at Lottery Headquarters.
National Lottery spokesperson Darragh O’Dwyer said, “Halloween brought a €73,687 surprise for one Galway player who matched five numbers and the bonus in Saturday night’s Lotto draw.”
“We’re encouraging anyone who purchased a Quick Pick ticket at Spar on the Tuam Road in Mountbellew to check their ticket carefully today, as one winning ticket is now worth an incredible €73,687.”
“And that’s not all, on Saturday night, we saw over 92,000 players nationwide win prizes across the Lotto and Plus draws!”
Meanwhile, as there was no winner of the €4,352,191 jackpot on offer, Monday night’s Lotto jackpot is now set to roll towards an estimated €4.5 million. Players dreaming of winning big are reminded that tickets can be purchased nationwide in-store, through the National Lottery app or online at www.lottery.ie ahead of the 7.45pm cut-off time for sales this evening.
