Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info A Meath man is buzzing with excitment after winning a life-changing six-figure sum in the EuroMillions raffle. The lucky punter snapped up a tidy €500,000 on Friday, May 2. The all-important ticket was bought at Mace Wilkinstown, Navan, Co. Meath. This turned out to be the best decision he's made in a while, especially since he only recently started adding the Plus option to his usual Quick Pick. He said: "I had a few old tickets lying around and decided to get them checked. One of them printed a slip telling me to contact the National Lottery. I didn't think much of it until I noticed the shop was decked out in balloons. I was driving home and that's when it hit me, I could be the winner!" He pulled over mid-journey to check his numbers online and sure enough, he was the EuroMillions Plus jackpot winner. 'The first thing I did was call my partner. She was completely speechless. We're absolutely over the moon!' The couple is already planning a dream family holiday to Italy, and the win brings more than just travel plans. 'This means we can secure our family's future, especially with college coming up. It's a dream come true!' Another Meath man won an additional €250,000, after his raffle code matched the winning sequence. The online player, who used personal numbers of significance to play a single line, initially believed he had won €5,000. He said: "I was truly delighted with that win, I thought to myself, 'Happy days!'" But the real surprise came when he contacted the National Lottery's Prize Claims team and discovered the full extent of his windfall. 'Unfortunately, the excitement was short-lived. I had to return to work, and it was a busy afternoon – how typical? However, mentally, I was lying on a beach soaking up the sunshine' He said: 'We've always wanted to go to California, and I've already an itinerary drafted. My car also sounds like a wooden ship, and the dash is lit up like a Christmas tree, so a new car is undoubtedly on the cards Join our Dublin Live breaking news service on WhatsApp. Click this link to receive your daily dose of Dublin Live content.
