Get. Checking. Those. Tickets! Because one Irish player won BIG.
Yep, we’re getting back into that “Close your eyes and just imagine … just fantasize … about what you would do with that kind of money” numbers.
Full on, 100% change-your-life-forever amounts of money.
Yep, the Euromillions lotto draw for Friday 17 August was for a staggering €99,896,146 and, well, that is a lot of coinage right there.
The winning numbers were 2, 15, 18, 24 and 43, while the Bonus Numbers were 8 and 12.
In case you’re wondering… nobody won it.
Two people out there in Europe won the Match 5 Plus One amount of €666,000 (no, we’re not kidding), but neither of the winning tickets were purchased in Ireland.
The biggest Irish winner was Match 5, and that person will be collecting a not-too-shabby €34,490.
HOWEVER.
The Euromillions Plus draw did have one lucky Irish winner, who is about to kick off their weekend with an extra €500,000 in their pockets
The Plus draw numbers were 10, 24, 32, 41 and 48.
