Thursday morning was a good morning for the owners of these two tickets.

A combined sum of just under €2.9 million (€2,887,835 to be exact) was claimed by two lucky ticketholders in Dublin after Wednesday night’s National Lottery draw.

On Thursday, the National Lottery revealed that the winning ticket for the jackpot of €2,387, 835, a Quick Pick ticket, was purchased at the Applegreen Roundtower Service Station in Corduff, Lusk, Co. Dublin on Wednesday.

The winning Lotto numbers were: 7, 19, 20, 32, 34, 43 and the bonus number was 45.

On the same day, meanwhile, another lucky punter in Dublin ended up richer to the tune of €500,000 after winning the top prize in the Lotto Plus 1 draw with a Quick Pick ticket sold at Griffin’s Londis store on Upper O’Connell Street in Dublin City.

The winning Lotto Plus 1 numbers were: 7, 17, 23, 34, 45, 46 and the bonus number was 37.

Marius Vaitiekus, Assistant Store Manager at the lucky Applegreen Round Tower store, said: “It’s been an incredible morning with excited customers coming to check their tickets and to join in with the celebrations.

“We are situated just outside Lusk so we are a very community-based store with a lot of local customers and we hope it is one of them. We are absolutely thrilled to sell the winning ticket and we wish the winner all the best.”

The National Lottery is urging punters to check their tickets and if they happen to be one of the lucky ones, to sign the back of the ticket and contact the National Lottery Prize Claims Team on 01 836 4444.
