Clock ticking as €3m Lotto pot still unclaimed

There’s a whole Lotto searching going on in Mayo right now, as the deadline to claim a €3m fortune is getting close.

A €3 quickpick bought in the Tesco in Silverbridge Shopping Centre, Mayo, was the only ticket to match the six numbers drawn by the National Lottery on Saturday, November 29, last — but the would-be windfall winner has yet to claim their prize.

The National Lottery has urged those who bought a ticket in Tesco Claremorris on the day of the draw to check their ticket, as the 90-day deadline to claim the €2,913,455 prize runs out by the close of business on Friday week, February 27.
