The staff at Eurospar An Cheathrú Rua in Carraroe celebrated one lucky individual, hopefully a local, who purchased a winning Lotto ticket there this week.
The family run store, which has been part of the village for 50 years, sold the winning ticket for Wednesday night’s €7,028,440 Lotto jackpot.
The shop staff celebrated the news on Friday alongside owner Aodán Breathneach and his wife Jennifer.
Shop owner Aodán Breathneach was thrilled to get the call from the National Lottery confirming the win.
“Our shop has been a cornerstone in An Cheathrú Rua for over 50 years, across three generations. We’ve had some Lotto and EuroMillions wins before, but never anything this big.”
“We have many regular local customers, so it’s exciting to think that one of them might have had a life-changing win, although it could be anyone!”
“We’re so happy for the winner and hope they’re already enjoying their amazing news. With a team of nearly 50 people, we’re all enjoying the buzz in the shop – wins like this are rare, so we’re making the most of the celebrations!”
