Christmas magic for €5.5m lotto winner
The wining ticket — a quick pick multi-draw purchase for €8 — was bought in Eason in Ballincollig, about 13km outside Cork city. The win means a grand total of €37.5m has been won in Cork alone this year.
Eason’s staff were having fun yesterday surmising who the fortunate winner was. Supervisor of the store Alex Lenihan said there is “great excitement” around as staff and customers alike try to work out who it is.
