The ‘Ireland Only Raffle’ of the EuroMillions Lottery draw was conducted on Friday, December 2nd, 2022, which saw a player from Cork claim one of the 10 prizes, becoming €50,000 richer.
The National Lottery has introduced a new promotion titled ’12 Draws of Christmas’ that are part of the EuroMillions lottery and this was the sixth of the total 12.
The winning ticket from Cork was sold in Cobh’s Cross, Carrigtwonhill at the Top Oil service station. The other 9 winners of the €50,000 prize were from Kildare, Kerry, Dublin, Mayo and Laois.
There were also those who played online in Kildare, Louth and Kilkenny. The new promotion means that ten players will be able to take home a prize of €50,000 each in each EuroMillions draw.
This is applicable to every draw that occurs on Tuesday and Friday between November 15th and December 23rd.
