A family-run shop on Galway city’s Westside is celebrating the sale of a winning €1,005,000 ticket in the EuroMillions Ireland Only Raffle Draw.

The Monaghan’s Centra and Circle K store, located on Seamus Quirke Road, sold the Quick Pick ticket to Ireland’s newest millionaire, who purchased their ticket on Wednesday, September 11.

The winning ticket has made one EuroMillions player in Galway an overnight millionaire, marking the store’s biggest win to date in its eight-year history.

Shop owner Simon Monaghan expressed his excitement upon hearing the news.

“We’re absolutely thrilled that one of our customers has become a millionaire! We’re really hoping it’s one of the locals who has landed this incredible win,” he said.

“This is a huge boost for our store and the entire area. It’s the largest win we’ve had so far, and we couldn’t be happier to be part of such a life-changing moment for one of our customers.”

The National Lottery continues to urge players who may have visited the Centra and Circle K store in Westside to purchase their EuroMillions ticket for the Friday, September 13, draw, to carefully check their tickets.

The winning raffle code from last night’s draw was: I-RCP-82103.  The winner is advised to sign the back of their ticket and keep it safe. They should make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to collect their prize.

Friday’s EuroMillions draw was the second of a four-week run of special draws which promise to make four players guaranteed millionaires across the month of September.

The next EuroMillions special draw will take place this Friday, and the final €1 million prize will be up for grabs in the Lotto Plus Raffle Draw on Saturday, September 28.
