The National Lottery has revealed that Saturday’s Lotto jackpot winning ticket worth €5.4m was sold at Carey’s, Main Street, Belmullet, Co Mayo.
Carey’s are no strangers to Lottery success after celebrating several big wins over the years, including one of Ireland’s largest Lotto jackpots of €13.8 million in 2016.
They also sold a winning Daily Million ticket worth €1 million in 2017 amongst other tickets which have each won thousands for Mayo players.
National Lottery spokesperson Emma Monaghan said Saturday was “an extraordinary night for Mayo and Dublin players, with three incredible wins.”
