Christmas came early for some Lotto punters after winning a whopping €50,000 each in the latest EuroMillions draw.
Ten players in Ireland won the tidy sum on last night’s EuroMillions "Ireland Only Raffle" draw. Of these, two players in Dublin scooped the special raffle prize which was the second of twelve draws in the National Lottery’s "12 Draws of Christmas" promotion.
The rest were two punters in Cork and one player in Clare, Galway, Kildare, Kilkenny and Tipperary. The winning tickets were sold in the following stores:
