Patients have been asked to check their tickets after a €31,000 EuroMillions prize was won at a Dublin hospital.
Lotto chiefs also urged anyone who has visited or works in the hospital to check if they won the whopping sum.
One lucky punter scooped €31,535 for matching five numbers plus one lucky star in Tuesday's draw.
And Lotto bosses have now revealed that the winning ticket was sold at Griffin’s Londis Store in St James’s Hospital in Dublin 8.
Store owner Seamus Griffin spoke of his delight after it was announced the prize was claimed by one of his customers.
He said: "This is just fantastic. This will make somebody’s Christmas that extra bit special so we’re encouraging anybody who was in the store yesterday to check their tickets carefully.
"It is a very busy store at the heart of the hospital so it is even more pleasing to know that the winner will most likely be a patient, a visitor or one of the very hard working staff at the hospital – whoever they are, we wish them well and hope they enjoy their win."
Mr Griffin also revealed that he has recently donated a Nissan Leaf electric car to raise funds for the St. James’s Hospital Foundation.
He added: "We are very proud to support the work of the St. James’s Hospital Foundation who work hard to improve the healthcare and wellbeing of the patients at the hospital.
"The Griffin Retail Group are now raffling this car worth over €30,000 and tickets are on sale in any of our 14 Griffin Londis retail outlets as well as online at www.supportstjames.ie."
Meanwhile there was life-changing success in Co Meath last night as one player scooped €203,097 in the draw.
The lucky ticket was sold at the Spar store on Fairyhouse Road in Ratoath, Co Meath.
The numbers drawn were 2, 3, 15, 19, 34 and the lucky stars were 5 and 8.
