Two people’s weekends have gotten off to a great start.

Two National Lottery players in Dublin and Limerick have won €500,000 each in two separate draws on Friday night.

The first winner was an online player in Dublin who scooped the top prize of €500,000 in Friday night’s EuroMillions Plus draw.

The lucky punter purchased their winning Quick Pick ticket on the day of the draw.

The National Lottery has confirmed that a notification to the user’s online account and a separate email has now been sent to the player who is encouraged to get in touch to begin the process of claiming their prize.

The winning numbers for Friday’s EuroMillions Plus draw were 07, 17, 29, 31 and 32.

Last night’s EuroMillions jackpot of €77,959,528 was won in Spain while over 60,000 players in Ireland won prizes across the EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games.

Meanwhile, Daily Million players in Limerick are being urged to check their tickets carefully as one player has a ticket worth €500,000.

The winner scooped the top prize in the Daily Million Plus draw on Friday night after purchasing their winning ticket on the day of the draw at the Amber service station on the Old Cork Road.

The numbers for the Daily Million Plus draw were 14, 19, 20, 25, 28, 39 and the bonus was 30.

The winning ticket holder is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to contact the prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email [email protected].

Arrangements will then be made for them to claim their prize.

Store supervisor Christopher MacNamara was delighted to hear the good news that his shop had sold a winning ticket worth €500,000.

“This is the largest prize that our store has ever sold so it’s definitely one to remember. I’m sure as soon as word starts to spread that there will be great excitement around town,” said MacNamara in a statement.

“We’re located in the middle of a large community so it’s great to think that it could be someone local who has come into a bit of good luck.

“It certainly is a well-earned prize after the year that it’s been. I wish the lucky winner all the best with their win!”

Daily Million draws take place twice a day, seven days a week at 2pm and 9pm and cost just €1 per play.
