Meanwhile, a shop owner who sold a €1 million jackpot ticket has shared his delight that “the dream of becoming a big Lotto winner has now become a reality” for one of his customers.
Lotto bosses today revealed that a village shop close to the Limerick and Tipperary border was the sales location for Saturday's Lotto Plus 1 jackpot ticket.
The top prize was won by a punter who collected a Quick Pick ticket on the day of the draw – March 9 – at Near, on Oola Main Street in Limerick.
Shop owner Tom O'Halloran was delighted when he heard one of his customers had won a big prize this weekend.
Welcoming the good news, he said: “It will certainly be a day of excitement here in Oola with the big announcement.
“I think we all want some good news, to be honest, so this is really perfect timing.
“We have no idea who the winner could be, but it would be great if it was someone local. Imagine: a big tax-free win of €1 million! You know what they say: it costs nothing to dreams and for one of our customers the dream of becoming a big Lotto winner has now become a reality.
“The winner will have many options for what they can do, but the most important thing for now is that we hope they check their ticket quickly and really enjoy their big news.”
The National Lottery continues to urge Treaty District players to check their tickets carefully from the March 9 draw, as one player has a ticket worth a life-changing €1 million.
