A lucky lotto player in Galway scooped a €250k prize in this week’s Lotto
draw, sure to be a happy camper heading into the weekend.
In a huge win, a Galway player struck gold in the Lotto Plus 2 draw,
bagging €250,000.
Their winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on the day of the draw at
SuperValu, Loughrea Shopping Centre, Athenry Road, Loughrea, Co. Galway.
The winning numbers in Wednesday night’s ( 25th September) Lotto Plus 2
draw were: 23, 26, 29, 30, 40, 42 and the Bonus was 39.
This marks the second major win for a Galway player in less than two
weeks, following a massive €1,005,000 victory in the special EuroMillions
Ireland Only Raffle on Friday, 13th September.
The main €5 million jackpot in Wednesday night’s draw was won by a
Limerick player, who became the 7th Lotto Jackpot winner of 2024.
They join the ranks of six other big winners from across the country,
including Dublin (4), Louth, and another Limerick victor earlier this
year. This latest win also makes the Limerick player the 26th National
Lottery millionaire of 2024.
The winning numbers in last night’s (Wednesday 25th September) main Lotto
draw were: 1, 7, 17, 20, 22, 31 and the Bonus was 35.
National Lottery spokesperson Sarah Ruane commented: “What an incredible
night for Limerick and Galway players, with two life-changing wins.”
“We now have a Limerick player who’s €5.5 million richer, claiming the
title of the 26th National Lottery millionaire so far this year, and a
Galway player securing a fantastic €250,000 prize.”
