Double delight as Irish EuroMillions players win massive sums
It was a double delight for two Dublin EuroMillions players, who both won massive sums.
While there were no winners of the extravagant €250million jackpot on Friday (June 6), two players from Dublin managed to scoop up a cool €23,054 each for matching five numbers.

The first player from Dublin who matched five numbers bought their Quick Pick ticket on May 23 from SuperValu Ballyroan, Rosemount Shopping Centre, Marian Road, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14.
The second winner bought their Quick Pick ticket on the day of the draw (June 6) from The Natter Day Today Store, Unit 26, Ongar Village, Dublin 15.

The jackpot is capped at the quarter of a billion euro, with one player set to make history as the winner of the biggest EuroMillions jackpot EVER.
The jackpot comes as time is running out for one Lotto player who won €500,000 in the March 28 draw to claim their life changing prize. The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased at Tesco, Stillorgan Shopping Centre, Stillorgan, Co. Dublin, on the day of the draw.
The team at Tesco Stillorgan, where the winning ticket was sold, are also eager to see the winner come forward, with store manager Errol Flynn commenting: 'It's incredibly exciting to know that one of our customers could be sitting on a €500,000 ticket. We'd love to see the prize claimed in time, so we're reminding everyone to double-check their tickets from late March. It would be fantastic to see it go to someone local!'
