Donegal family collect €500k at
Lotto HQ
23.08.18
A lucky family from
County Donegal had half a million reasons to be
cheerful yesterday, Wednesday 22 August, as they collected
a cheque for €500,000 which they won in last
Friday’s EuroMillions Plus draw.
The family wasted no time in collecting their prize
from National Lottery HQ in Dublin following their
weekend win and they admitted that they are still in
utter disbelief at their good fortune: “It just
doesn’t feel real, even now as we’re sat here in the
winners’ room” said the winning dad. “We heard about
the EuroMillions win in Donegal on Saturday morning
so we hopefully checked our tickets on the National
Lottery App but we never believed in a million years
it would be us. It’s absolutely insane!” |

The winning ticket was
purchased on the day of the draw at Oldtown Stores
in Letterkenny.
Discussing their plans for their EuroMillions
winnings, the family say that they plan on paying
off their mortgage and the majority of the money
left over will be set aside for their children’s
futures: “It’s an incredible prize which will make a
huge difference to our family. We’re looking forward
to being mortgage free but most importantly, the win
means that our children will have the best possible
start in life,” said the delighted dad. |
