Lotto punters across the country have been urged to check their tickets after 103 players won a whopping €10,000.
Saturday's draw produced an incredible 103,000 prize winners, with 103 punters scooping the Plus Raffle, taking home €10,209 each.
There was no winner of the €4.1million jackpot, which now rolls to an estimated €4.5million on Wednesday.
And despite having no jackpot winner, one player in Co Cork scooped a cool €250,000.
Speaking about the fantastic night for prize winners, a Lotto spokesman said: “While one lucky player in Cork is €250,000 richer this morning, there are also 103 individual winners scattered throughout the country who have won €10,209 each.
"Each of these winners can collect their prize at their local An Post Prize Claim Centres, when safe to do so.
"If you are the lucky winner of the €250,000 Lotto Plus 2 top prize, please contact our prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and we will make arrangements for you to collect your prize once Covid-19 restrictions are lifted.”
Meanwhile, the winning Plus 2 Quick Pick ticket was bought at Ray’s Centra/Applegreen service station on the Limerick Road outside Charleville town.
The winning numbers from the Lotto Plus 2 draw were 08, 25, 29, 34, 41, 42 and the bonus was 28.
Speaking on selling the winning ticket, co-owner of Lee’s Centra/Applegreen service station, Ray Lee said: “My brother, Brendan and I set up this store over 15 years ago and this is our first big Lotto win so we’re absolutely over the moon for one of our customers.
"I got the call from the National Lottery late last night so since then, the excitement has been building throughout Charleville town, knowing that one of the locals might be a quarter of a million richer!
"We are located on the Limerick Road going out of Charleville so even with Covid-19 restrictions in place, we are still getting a lot of passing traffic with essential workers coming to and from their place of work, so there is a chance that it could be one of them."
He added: "We’re asking everybody who may have bought a ticket in the store to carefully check their tickets because as the old line goes, it could be you."
