Donegal Daily Million Plus player scoops €500,000 top prize in Sunday draw

A Daily Million player in Donegal ended their weekend €500,000 better off after winning the top prize in Sunday’s draw. 

The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on the day of the draw at Umricam Filling Station in Buncrana. The winning Daily Million Plus numbers for Sunday’s 9pm draw were: 15, 18, 22, 23, 27, 37 and the Bonus was 08. 

The player has since made contact with the National Lottery and arrangements are now being made for the top prize winner to collect their prize.  

“Sunday night’s Daily Million Plus win marked the first top prize win in the game so far this year,” National Lottery spokesperson Sarah Orr said. “The Buncrana player won their €500,000 after picking up their Quick Pick ticket at the Umricam Filling Station. But they weren’t the only National Lottery player celebrating a top prize win this weekend!

“The Sunday night win marked the second €500,000 prize in three days following Friday night’s EuroMillions Plus draw, which saw a Dublin player win the top prize amount after purchasing their ticket at Centra Drumcondra on Lower Drumcondra Road. 

“Earlier in the week, another Dublin player won big after winning the top prize in Tuesday’s EuroMillions Plus draw. That’s three players across EuroMillions and Daily Million to win €500,000 in less than a week!”
