A Dublin Shop is celebrating after it sold last night’s winning Lotto Jackpot ticket.
There was only one winner of last night’s €5.7m jackpot.
This morning, it was confirmed that the winning ticket was sold at the Spar Express store on Rathfarnham Road in Dublin.
Shop owner Ken O’Connor said staff are overjoyed with the news.
“We simply can’t believe it,” he said. “This is our first big Lotto win and staff and customers are buzzing with excitement,”
“We are on a lucky run as we recently sold a Scratch Card that won a customer €25,000.
“But this is amazing, we are hoping it is somebody local but we are a busy shop with a lot of passing traffic so we don’t know.”
