“I heard the following day that the jackpot was won in Spain, so I didn’t even bother checking the results. I didn’t know anything about a €500,000 Euromillions Plus prize.”
“Despite the fact there was a lot of talk over the weeks of a big Euromillions winner in Clare it just never registered that it could be me,” she added.
“A few weeks later we were at home and I casually mentioned that I got a Euromillions ticket in Ardnacrusha. The house went absolutely wild with the anticipation as we searched for this ticket and we haven’t stopped celebrating since.”
The celebrations aren’t going to stop now either, with the plans for the winnings including a brand new car and a big sun holiday for all the family.
“The shopping list has been drawn up so we have a small few things to buy before we start acting sensibly with the money,” the Clare native said.
“I’m driving a banger of a car at the moment so I’ll definitely be trading that up. We’ll take care of the family of course but not before I take them all away on a sun holiday before Christmas.”
On Friday night, November 11, the Euromillions Pus top prize of €500,000 was claimed by one lucky winner in Ireland. More details are available here.Explore more on these topics:
