A very happy Christmas on the way for one lucky punter.

If you did the Lotto for Saturday night’s draw, you’ll want to check your tickets immediately and thoroughly as someone is now quite a lot richer than when they woke up this morning.

The main draw jackpot of €6,589,886 was won by an online player, who will presumably spare no expense in their Christmas shopping this year.

Let’s get to it, then. The winning numbers for Saturday 8 December are as follows:

9 15 17 24 41 43 with a bonus number of 37.

As noted, the winning ticket was bought online, so congratulations to whoever chose convenience over banter with the cashier in their local shop.

Elsewhere, there was no winner of the Lotto Plus 1 or Lotto Plus 2 top prizes.

There were 96 winners of the Raffle Prize, with each receiving €500.

The winning raffle number is 0596.

Full results are available here.
