Lottery fans who are envious after hearing about the Bulls’ luck with the lotto may want to play EuroMillions online to win big – just like the Nottinghamshire family.
Catherine and Gareth Bull went public with their €48.9 million jackpot payout, which they landed after entering the last Friday drawing of the game on January 20th.
The couple revealed they spent the entire weekend keeping the good news quiet from their two sons, ten-year-old Joel and nine-year-old Declan, but have now decided to let the whole world in on their big secret.
Mr and Mrs Bull have revealed their boys will benefit hugely from their enormous EuroMillions windfall and have suggested they will start their lives off as a wealthy family with a dream trip to Disneyland inFlorida where they can escape from the media frenzy.
In addition, Mr Bull wants to buy himself a box at the Manchester United football ground at Old Trafford, while his wife has her sights set on a new carpet for the upstairs of their family home.
EuroMillions millionaires Mr and Mrs Bull
Mrs Bull admitted her plans for splashing the cash are not very exciting, but puts this down to her lack of interest in going into town on a spending spree.
“I have never been much of a shopper and I can’t see that changing now. I already have home food delivery … because I hate shopping,” she admitted.
Mr Bull – who is a builder – and health insurance worker Mrs Bull have no plans to leave their jobs or move house, claiming their current property is perfect for their young family.
Instead, they have big plans for donating a good portion of their wealth to charitable causes.
Mr Bull’s mother battled breast cancer five years ago and the couple have pledged to make a generous cash gift for research into the disease.
Their new lives as multi-millionaires may make some lottery players green with envy, but fans have every chance to win a fortune just like this unassuming Nottinghamshire family on Friday (January 27th).
The next EuroMillions draw promises an estimated jackpot of €27 million after yesterday’s (January 24th) top prize rolled over.
A Euro Millions rollover winner is now one of the wealthiest lotto fans in theUK after winning €48.9 million on Friday (January 20th).
The jackpot has been on the rise since January 6th when one lucky soul won €36.5 million – which was the first top prize paid out to a fortunate ticketholder in 2012.
Very little is known about the new multi-millionaire, apart from the fact they are from theUKand came forward to collect their prize over the weekend.
The EuroMillions fan is now the seventh-wealthiest lottery winner in theUK and has more cash in the bank than many celebrities and business chiefs – and could even win a place on the Sunday Times Rich List when it is published later this year.
A spokesperson has claimed the prize money may already be in the individual’s account, as the funds are allowed to be transferred to the mystery lottery fan as soon as the banks open today and their claim has been verified.
It has not been revealed yet if they will go public like previous jumbo EuroMillions prize winners Christine and Colin Weir from Largs inScotland, who won the biggest jackpot in UK history worth €185 million last July, or Dave and Angela Dawes, who landed €121 million – the third-largest – in October.
In 2010, an anonymous EuroMillions player won €135.8 million – but opted to remain out of the media.
A representative from the country’s official lottery organisation Camelot said: “This is fantastic news – we’re absolutely delighted to have yet another huge EuroMillions win here in the UK. We have plenty of champagne on ice and look forward to welcoming the lucky ticketholder into The National Lottery millionaires’ club.”
Now the EuroMillions jackpot has been reset to its starter sum and players can start playing for this refreshed top prize for tomorrow’s (January 24th) draw.
The new payout is now totalled at €15 million – but may be set to increase if there is another rollover.
Fans who want to get involved can do so at theLotter, where they can play online, check results and find out more about some of the world’s most exciting draws.
For some it may be holidays, others the chance to quit their jobs, but for many lottery winners, the first thing they want to do with their newfound fortune is buy the ultimate set of wheels.
And that is exactly what Neath-born EuroMillions winner Gavin Davies will be doing, as the 29-year-old professional cage fighter is going to hand in his battered old Audi and replace it with a shiny new white Lamborghini Spyder.
But the millionaire has a lot to thank his old car for, as he revealed he only realised he had landed a €1.2 million jackpot when he found his lottery ticket in the glove compartment 17 days after he bought it.
EuroMillions winner Gavin Davies
He said he was prompted to check for his old EuroMillions slips after his granddad revealed there was a lottery winner in the local area and that it could be him.
Spookily, Mr Davies looked up the winning numbers on Friday 13th – a day that is thought to be unlucky.
The sportsman was out and about this week test-driving models by the famous luxury car brand.
“I can’t wait to visit the showrooms to choose one – I will be like a kid in a sweet shop,” he said.
Mr Davies revealed that it was always his dream to win a million playing the lotto but had only ever taken home small amounts in the past.
The extra cash will come as an added blessing for the cage fighter, as he and his partner have recently welcomed a baby boy – who he accidentally woke up when he discovered he had landed himself a small fortune.
“Becoming a millionaire at any time is great but being 29 and having my first child it could not have come at a better time. I’ve always wanted a Lamborghini and now I’m going to be purring around in one. I’m going to be the most popular man in town!”
Lotto fans who have dreams of owing a supercar may want to enter the EuroMillions in time for Friday’s (January 20th) draw, as numerous rollovers have inflated the top prize to €48 million.
The pressure to keep a winning lottery ticket safe must be unbearable for those lucky enough to choose the correct numbers, but oneYorkshire family knew exactly where to put their slip for safekeeping.
Judy and Frank Whitmore from Tockwith in the UK landed a €1.2 million cash prize playing EuroMillions just before Christmas last month and decided that they would stow their lottery ticket safely away in an antique teapot before taking it to the lottery headquarters to collect their payout.
Ms Whitmore explained that the hiding place has sentimental value because it belonged to her husband’s great-great-grandmother.
She noted that the teapot is kept on the kitchen shelf and she knew it would be a safer place than the windowsill or her purse – where she usually keeps her lottery tickets.

The couple realised their luck had come through when they checked their EuroMillions numbers on Christmas Eve.
Ms Whitmore said she was so excited that she had to ask her son to check the numbers and call the lottery for her, because neither she nor her husband could speak.
When it dawned on them, the couple – who are in their 60s – admitted they screamed with excitement.
After the realisation they had won a fortune began to sink in, the family went for a stroll to regain a sense of normality.
“We just wandered down the river with great big smiles on our faces and occasionally laughing,” Ms Whitmore said.
The pair did not reveal the happy news to their other two children until they were all together on Christmas Day – with the lottery win coming in as a late yuletide gift for the whole family.
But what will the Whitmores be spending their newfound EuroMillions wealth on? The couple have revealed they want to enjoy themselves and said they will buy a new car – perhaps a Nissan Rav4 – and plan some walking holidays across the UK.
Lotto fans who want a taste of the lifestyle this family can now enjoy may wish to play EuroMillions in time for tomorrow’s (January 17th) draw, which promises a jackpot worth around €35 million following numerous rollovers.
Playing any lottery is fun, but a few fans may feel put off by the fact some payouts could be less than their estimated value after tax has been deducted from them – and in some cases as much as 40 per cent may be slashed from jackpot totals.
However, this is not always the case, as there are many lotto games that do not subtract such duties from a prize at all – which may be of interest to those who want to ensure they keep the entirety of their lottery winnings to themselves.
The Italian SuperEnalotto is just one of the many draws enthusiasts can get involved in.
If a player is fortunate enough to get all their numbers right playing this game then they will get to take home the complete prize as a cash sum – which means no annuity payouts or monthly instalments and they keep the entire jackpot for themselves if they are the sole winner that day.
So, if a lotto fan enters his or her numbers for tonight’s (January 17th) Italian SuperEnalotto draw, they will get the opportunity to bank the entire estimated top prize of €53.7 million.
Another popular lottery with no duties is the EuroMillions, which is the biggest tax-free Euro lotto.
The EuroMillions sells tickets in nine European countries and is popular online across the world because it gives its fans the entirety of the prize money if their luck comes in.
This draw has resulted in some of the wealthiest lotto winners on the continent, with the records being smashed only last year when Christine and Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland took home a total of €185 million in jackpot money.
Finally, the Spanish El Gordo is also free from having tax deducted from its top prize payouts.
The lottery is already considered one of the more generous in the world of lotto because 70 per cent of ticket revenues are paid out in winnings to those who enter the draws, but the fact players can cash in on the entire amount of their winnings makes it even more appealing.
Those who want to get involved with the Spanish El Gordocan do so online at theLotter for the next draw on January 22nd, when the jackpot is expected to reach €10.6 million.
It was one of the most fervently coveted jackpots available for the taking, but on Friday, the EuroMillions results made two ticketholders multi-millionaires.
The Euro lotto top prize had been rolling over since December 16th, with the six draws in between then and last week’s win boosting the top prize to more than €73 million.
Now, the lucky lottery fans will be splitting this enormous payout between them, meaning they get to take home a fortune of over €36 million apiece.
Not much is known about these fortunate players except for the fact that one of the individuals bought their lottery ticket in Spain and the other in France, but as they only won their enormous cash prizes a matter of days ago, they may yet decide to go public and reveal their plans for the future.
Coincidentally, the last EuroMillions jackpot winner was also Spanish, with the lucky player landing more than €46 million when they got all the right numbers in their entry for the December 16th draw after a triple rollover.
Before that, a EuroMillions top prize was shared between a Spanish lotto fan and a British person after the October 21st draw last year, with the pair splitting that €48 million between them.
Spain’s biggest Euro lotto winner last year claimed their €105 million prize following the May 13th draw, but it was a French player who won one of the largest jackpot sums going in 2011, with an anonymous lottery player from Calvados taking home over €162 million in September.
Before that, a fortunate fan from France claimed EuroMillions top prizes worth €27.6 million in May and €23 in July, while a Spanish person netted a €28 million windfall back in February.
Now the EuroMillions jackpot has reset to €15 million and lotto fans can choose the numbers for their lottery ticket online at theLotter to make sure their entries are primed and ready in time for the next draw.
People can play to be in with a chance of winning tonight (January 10th) and could also enter their lucky numbers on Friday, when the second draw of the week is scheduled to take place.
Lotto hype was at its zenith in the run-up to the December holiday season and now 2012 is well under way, fans may be left wondering just who won the EuroMillions at Christmas.
It seems lady lucky was smiling down on the little town of Grange-over-SandsinCumbriathis yuletide, as a family from the northernUKcounty realised they were millionaires on the big day itself.
Karen Shaw and her husband Anthony had entered the EuroMillions on the Friday (December 23rd) before Christmas, but left their lottery tickets under the tree to check while opening their presents with their children.
The couple – who have two grown-up children, Sara and Karl – forgot to look at their numbers on Christmas morning and did not inspect them until later that afternoon, which is when they realised they had landed a €1.2 million fortune.
Mrs Shaw said: “We eventually all sat down around 16:00 GMT on Christmas Day to open the presents and I remembered the tickets. I had put them in an envelope under the tree.”
“Karl was looking at numbers on his phone and suddenly said, ‘You had better check it – I think it’s a winner’.”
The mum-of-two manages a sheltered housing scheme and admitted she had only bought the EuroMillions tickets on a whim.
And the family have not wasted any time when it comes to how they will spend their newfound wealth.
One of the first things they will use the cash for is helping their children get out of the family home and onto the property ladder, as Mrs Shaw says she would like to have less mess to clear up.
Then once their son and daughter are sorted out, the Shaws have decided they would like to take a luxury cruise toAlaska, as well as treat the rest of the family and ensure all their loved ones are financially secure.
Lottery fans who would like a taste of the good life the Shaw family are now enjoying can enter the lottery online and check EuroMillions results at theLotter to be in with a chance of landing Friday’s (January 6th) €73 million top prize.
As the new year approaches, some people may be taking stock of the amazing things that happened in 2011 and are perhaps wondering what will be making the headlines in 2012.
This year was certainly a big one in terms of memorable lottery wins and none more so than the record-smashing EuroMillions jackpot of €185 million, which was won by Scottish couple Christine and Colin Weir back in July.
Indeed, there have been two major wins for the game since the pair from Largs landed their life-altering windfall, with Dave and Angela Dawes from Wisbech inEnglandscooping a €101 million in autumn after an anonymous French lotto fan landed a €162 million jackpot.
And maybe 2012 will set some new top jackpot wins for the biggest American lotteries, however it has been some time since those records have been broke.
USA Powerball holds the record for the largest top prize ever won by one person – a $340 million payout claimed byOregonman Steve West in 2006.
Furthermore, the USAMega Millionsrecord jackpot is the biggest in the history ofNorth America.
The mind-boggling sum of $390 million was won by truck driver Eddie Nabors from Georgia and builder Harold Massner fromNew Jerseyback in 2007.
Lotto fans keen to find out where their luck will take them in 2012 can find out at theLotter, where they can enter draws and check results online.
The excitement of beginning the new year seems to have prompted millions of fans of the Europelottery draws to buy up tickets in the hopes of starting 2012 with a pocketful of cash.
But it seems luck was thin on the ground at the end of December, with the continent’s most popular lottos rolling over, inflating their jackpot values just in time for the start of the year.
The EuroMillions jackpot rolled over again yesterday (January 3rd) after ending 2011 without making any new millionaires.
This boosted the total payout to €73 million and second prize to over €1.3 million if a sole ticketholder strikes lucky.
No stranger to rollovers – the thrilling Italian SuperEnalotto draw saw its top prize ratchet up again on the last day of the year, as nobody had the requisite six main numbers and the Jolly number.
Fans of the game can play again tomorrow (January 5th) to be in with a chance of starting off the 2012 with a cool €49.6 million in the bank.
The Italian SiVince Tutto also saw 2011 come to a close without anybody landing its top prize on December 30th.
Its monthly draws mean fans will have to wait 21 days to be in with a chance of taking home €15 million.
In its first game of the year, the Spanish El Gordo also witnessed its jackpot roll over to €9.1 million, as its New Year’s Day draw saw nobody land the top prize by picking all five main numbers correctly plus the bonus number.
France’s Loto is another lottery that rounded off 2011 with an exciting draw, but on December 31st and on January 2nd there were no players lucky enough to bag the top prize, so it is now inflated to an exciting €9 million.
Despite all these rollovers, one lottery did manage to make somebody a millionaire in time for midnight on New Year’s Eve.
The UK National Lottery‘s December 31st draw resulted in one lucky fan taking home £1.3 million to start their 2012 in style – a cash prize that may be more than welcome after the expense of Christmas.
Last year, the EuroMillions lottery made two couples obscenely wealthy, with the newspapers following their every move after they opted to go public with their enormous fortunes – but what have they been doing since their numbers came in playing the Euro lotto?
Christine and Colin Weir of the marina town of Largs in Scotland scooped a €185 million jackpot in July after months of rollovers.
The husband and wife pair have not been shy about how they have spent their windfall, lavishing €185,000 on cars for friends in November by snapping up six vehicles at a local Suzuki dealership, according to the Daily Record.
In addition to splashing out on a holiday to the Canary Islands, lengthy stays in luxury hotels and incredible gifts for friends, the couple have also put their lotto cash to good use, donating a sum to keep the historic Waverley paddle steamer tourist attraction afloat, rescuing it from being decommissioned.
Their generosity does not end there, however, as Mrs Weir made sure her hard-working former colleagues at the Ravenscraig Hospital in Greenock received a share of her and her husband’s fortune at Christmas, giving nearly €60,000 to her friends there.
She also donated nearly €6,000 to patients spending their festive season at the hospital.
But what about 2011′s other big EuroMillions winners?
Dave and Angie Dawes of Wisbech landed an incredible €115 million playing the Euro lotto in October, making them the third-richest lottery winners in the history of the UK.
The couple made their generosity well known, announcing upon landing the fortune that they would be making 20 of their friends millionaires.
Indeed, the mother of Mr Dawes, Jean Smith, was named as one of the handful of people the pair would share their lottery wealth with.
The couple have not changed too much since landing their enormous payout, with newspapers reporting that during a stay at a luxury hotel in London they eschewed the caviar and champagne in favour of cups of tea and pints of lager.
However, they have enjoyed a chauffeur-driven Mercedes S-Class and a shopping spree on Oxford Street since scooping their enormous prize.
Dave and Angela Dawes tied the knot in December in a simple ceremony in Gretna Green rather than the A-list bash they could have afforded, with just a handful of guests witnessing their marriage by candlelight.
Recently, popular European Lotteries have shown an upward trend as jackpots continue to climb in 2012. The SuperEnalotto, currently at €48 million, has yet to declare a winner of the since a lucky ticket holder claimed a win of €15 million on September 17nd, 2011. The recently added Italy-Super Star on theLotter.com enables SuperEnalotto fans to add millions to the SuperEnalotto jackpot, multiply secondary prizes between 25-100 times, and win with 8 new prize categories. The Euromillions has reached €58 million after more than a month of rollovers since the beginning of December.
Players interested in kicking off the New Year with Europe’s biggest jackpots can take a peek at the Euromillion’s recent commercial.
This holiday season is brining special good tidings to lottery fans as many of the bigger lotteries have shown an exciting trend as they have been steadily rising with exciting jackpots. The Mega Millions, USA Powerball, Florida Lotto, SuperEnalotto, the Mega da Virada, and the EuroMillions continue to rollover and captivate lottery lovers with huge jackpot win potential.
The Mega Millions has been growing since November 4th and is now at an incredible $135 million after 12 rollovers. The USA Powerball is an impressive $91 million after seven rollovers, and the Florida Lotto is at $47 million. However, the US lotteries aren’t to be outdone by their European counterparts: after more than 20 rollovers, the SuperEnalotto has reached €42.9 million, and the EuroMillionsa remarkable €46 million. Additionally, Brazil’s annual end of the year lottery; the Mega da Virada is now R$ 170 million. With more than €369 million ($479 million) to be won, some lucky lottery winners will be spreading extra holiday cheer with huge windfalls.
Players can enjoy the holidays with the Mega Millions, USA Powerball, SuperEnalotto, EuroMillions, Mega Da Virada or the Florida Lotto from anywhere in the world on theLotter.com. Happy Holidays!
As if landing a €185 million EuroMillions fortune was not reward enough for Christine and Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland, the record-smashing lottery winners have been recognised by the famous board game Trivial Pursuit for their good fortune.
According to For Argyll, the now obscenely wealthy couple have been voted the Biggest Winners of 2011 by avid fans of the game who were asked to list the highlights of this year.
The results of the poll are expected to feature in future editions of Trivial Pursuit, but it is unlikely Christine and Colin Weir are going to be forgotten by lottery players any time soon, especially as the media has been following their every move since going public in July.
In the survey, the winners came out on top, while the England Ashes-winning cricket team and Pippa Middleton – Kate Middleton’s little sister – came in second and third.
This year has been a very exciting one for EuroMillions fans, but 2011 is not over yet and there are still five more draws in total until the New Year.
Lotto players may want to buy their lottery tickets online, with Friday’s (December 16th) jackpot estimated to be €46 million.
Lotto fans may be wondering what is the latest time to buy a EuroMillions ticket, because tomorrow’s (December 13th) lottery draw could result in a very merry Christmas for one lucky lotto player.
The next game is expected to have a jackpot of €33 million as a result of a triple rollover and millions of people from all over the world will be getting in the game for a chance to take home this enormous top prize.
But how long do they have to buy their lottery ticket before the draw starts?
Fans who like to play the EuroMillions online can purchase tickets until 19:30 GMT on Tuesdays and Fridays in time for the draws set to take place that evening at 21:00 GMT.
All tickets bought after that time will be for the next draw.
Those who are new to the EuroMillionslottery may not know that the game is actually the most-played in Europe and will always have a minimum jackpot of €15 million.
This year, the game has resulted in some pretty lucky lottery ticket holders, with Christine and Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland scooping the biggest ever prize in July, taking home €185 million – which they have spent on a new home, holidays and the Scottish National Party’s campaign for independence.
If lotto fans buy a EuroMillions ticket online they may avoid missing out on a huge payout – as the hunt is now on for one lottery player who may not realise they are entitled to €1.2 million in prize money.
According to the Birmingham Mail, the winning EuroMillions ticket was purchased in Cannock Chase in June, but so far nobody has claimed the life-changing sum of money.
Time is running out for this lotto fan, as they have until 15:00 GMT to collect their winnings on Sunday (December 11th) before the cash is redistributed to the lottery‘s good causes.
By playing the EuroMillions online at theLotter, people can avoid this unfortunate series of events because their ticket and numbers for each individual lottery draw are saved digitally, eradicating the risk of losing a slip because it fell out of a pocket or was thrown away by mistake.
Furthermore, lotto fans receive alters if they win prizes, so they can collect their winnings straight away without having to paw through their tickets and check the numbers against what the newspaper or internet says.
The clock is ticking for the lottery player from Cannock Chase, however and a spokesman for the UK National Lottery has said the organisation is “desperate” to get in touch with them before it’s too late.
“We’re urging everyone to check their old EuroMillions tickets again or look anywhere a missing lottery ticket could be hiding so that this prize can turn someone into the newest member of the lottery millionaire club,” he said.
EuroMillions winners Dave and Angela Dawes have celebrated their lottery windfall together and tied the knot, but the couple decided not to let their wealth dictate their perfect day.
The pair – who landed a €101 million jackpot in October – had the means to hold a ceremony and reception the likes of which are only usually experienced by Hollywood A-listers and royalty, but in the name of love, they opted for a simple event attended by just five family members.
Dave and Angela Dawes said their vows at Gretna Green – a wedding location favoured by eloping couples for centuries – in a candlelit ceremony at Anvil Hall on Friday (December 2nd).
The bride wore a cream dress and arrived by horse-drawn carriage and was met by the groom, who wore a morning suit and was supported by his two sons from a previous marriage.
Neither could afford to tie the knot before their lotto win, so celebrated finally being able to do so with champagne and steak at the Gretna Chase Hotel.
Lottery fans who enjoy playing the EuroMillions can do so at theLotter in time for tomorrow’s (December 6th) draw, which has an estimated jackpot of €15 million.
This summer’s record-smashing EuroMillions winners – Christine and Colin Weir from Largs in Scotland – have lavished €185,000 on new cars for their friends.
According to the Daily Record, the couple – who scooped €185 million in July playing the European lottery – have snapped up six vehicles on sale at a local Suzuki dealership, keeping two of the Japanese autos for themselves.
Their choice of car could be proof that the multimillionaires are relatively down to earth, given that their incredible wealth could afford them the world’s most expensive car, a €1.4 million Aston Martin One77.
In addition to buying Suzukis, the Weirs let one friend choose his own new set of wheels and picked up the bill for the black €92,000 Mercedes when he had decided what he wanted.
An insider close to the pair told the newspaper: “Since their incredible win, they have helped out lots of friends but have done so discreetly. They don’t want any fuss but they have always been generous.”
Indeed, the recipient of one of the Suzukis the Weirs purchased has claimed the lotto win will not change them and by purchasing cars from local showrooms they are also doing the region’s economy some good.
Lottery fans who have their hearts set on a Suzuki – or any make of car for that matter – may want to buy EuroMillions tickets online at theLotter to be in with a chance of winning Friday’s (November 25th) €35 million jackpot.
Yesterday’s (November 15th) EuroMillionsdraw resulted in one player scooping the €15 million top prize thanks to matching all five numbers correctly plus the two Lucky Star bonus balls.
The fortunate lotto fan is yet to make themselves known to the world – after all, it has not even been a full day since they realised they now own a life-changing sum of cash – but it begs the question, what would you buy with all that money?
Some helpful tips for spending a EuroMillions win have been suggested by the Daily Telegraph.
Toasting one’s success is very important when something this exciting happens to them, so the newspaper suggests investing in some good-quality champagne, such as the Methuselah of Cristal Brut 1990, which sold at auction in 2005 in New York for €13,197.
But what should a fabulously wealthy lotterywinner nibble on while they celebrate their newfound riches? Why caviar of course. With even a kilo of the world’s most expensive Almas caviar – which comes in a 24-carat gold tin – barely denting their bank balance at €18,700.
Finally, what does a multi-millionaire look at while they are sipping their Cristal and snacking on Almas?
The newspaper suggests investing in a beautiful timepiece, such as the Hubolt Black Caviar Bang watch, which is encrusted with diamonds and is priced at €738,000.
Welcome to the first blog in our new series of lotto terms, a feature that aims to explain to players what some lotteryjargon really means.
Lotto fans may already be familiar with the word rollover, but to those who do not know, this is when games become even more exciting and jackpots start to climb even higher.
A rollover is when a top prize is not won after a draw because no lotterytickets had numbers matching all of the balls drawn in the game.
As a result, the jackpot rolls over to the next game, increasing the payout when somebody does strike lucky with their numbers.
Rollovers are a thrill for many lotto fans and some prizes can keep on growing for months on end, creating record-smashing jackpots when they are finally won.
This year, the EuroMillions saw its largest-ever prize go to Christine and Colin Weird of Largs in Scotland.
The couple won the coveted €185 million jackpot in July after 14 rollovers and were lucky they nabbed it when they did,
because EuroMillionsofficials were going to split the money between second-tier winners if nobody’s luck came in.
Another game that is popular thanks to its rollovers is Italian SuperEnalotto, which sees its jackpots climb week upon week owing to having 90 balls in play – which may also tempt those who love the excitement a rollover causes.
After several weeks of repeated rollovers, the EuroMillions jackpot was scooped by one lucky lotto fan from Switzerland.
The top prize had climbed to a whopping €67.9 million for Friday’s (November 11th) game.
According to local news site Blick, the anonymous lottery player is now one of the wealthiest lottery winners from Switzerland, with only one Portuguese national taking home a bigger prize in 2005, when he scooped €79 million in the same game.
Very little is known about the lucky lotto fan apart from the fact he or she bought their lottery ticket on Friday afternoon before the draw in a shopping centre in Zurich.
So now the EuroMillions jackpot sum has been reset to €15 million – a prize that is certainly not to be sniffed at.
Lottery fans can try their luck at scooping this generous payout by playing tomorrow (November 15th) and Friday (November 18th) at theLotter.
A couple who won the largest EuroMillions jackpot in the history of the game this year will be using some of their winnings to keep an historic boat from being decommissioned.
According to the Sun, Christine and Colin Weir – who scooped a record-smashing €185 million payout playing the lottery in July – will be providing some of the money needed to ensure the Waverly carries on doing its tourist trips.
The vessel – which is the world’s last ocean-going paddle steamer – regularly stops off at their hometown of Largs in Scotland and the EuroMillions winners claim it holds a special place in their hearts.
Last night Mrs Weir said: “We are in discussions with the Waverley people as we regard the ship as iconic. It is high on our list of causes that should be helped.”
Lotto fans who wish they could use a lottery windfall to keep their local attractions alive can play EuroMillions at theLotter, to be in with a chance of winning tomorrow’s (November 11th) jackpot of €66 million.
Would you use a EuroMillions win to help your community?
It is not uncommon for lottery winners to spend some of their new windfall on causes they support and this summer’s record-smashing EuroMillions players Christine and Colin Weir are doing just that – by donating to their chosen political party.
The Largs couple – who scooped €185 million playing the draw in July – are helping to finance Scottish National Party (SNP) leader Alex Salmond’s campaign for Scottish independence, which could see the country separated from the rest of the UK.
Indeed, the Weirs have a passion for politics, with Mr Weir standing as the SNP candidate in Ayr in the 1987 election.
The couple are reported to have donated a “seven-figure sum” to Mr Salmond’s cause.
A party source said: “There is no doubt Colin is committed to the cause of independence and he even has a life membership with the SNP. He wants to help the party make a difference.”
Lotto fans who want to get involved in such causes like Christine and Colin Weir can play tonight’s (November 8th) EuroMillions draw to be in with a chance of taking home €53 million.
Would your EuroMillions jackpot go to causes you support?
Dave and Angela Dawes, who scooped €115 million last month playing EuroMillions, have been seen celebrating their enormous lotto windfall with a meal out – but unlike other lucky lottery winners, this pair is not wallowing in caviar and champagne.
An insider at the luxury hotel they stayed at in London revealed to the Star that Mr Dawes was unimpressed with the food on the establishment’s menu and asked the chef to knock together a curry for him, which he washed down with a pint of lager.
The couple have been relishing their newfound lottery wealth in other ways, however, spending time at the Apple store in the capital’s West End before hopping into a chauffeur-driven Mercedes S-Class to complete their shopping spree on Oxford Street.
Lotto fans who fancy a taste of the lifestyle Mr and Mrs Dawes are enjoying may already have their numbers lined up for Friday’s (October 28th) EuroMillions draw, which has an estimated jackpot of €26 million.
More often than not, the first thing a lotto fan lucky enough to scoop a massive jackpot playing games such as EuroMillions will do is go on holiday – and one expert has revealed which locations are a proven hit with lottery winners.
Celebrity life coach Eva Speakman claims trips to Australian and Caribbean cruises are the most popular places that such lucky lotto players choose to jet off to – perhaps because flights down under from the western hemisphere make it unreachable for many people, while a luxury berth on a liner offers a great deal of appeal.
However, such vacations do not suit everybody and Ms Speakman noted that some people cannot choose between dream destinations – and so book two holidays.
“Most people who do want to travel would like to experience both the nice hot climates of the Caribbean and skiing in the Austrian Alps,” she explained.
The next EuroMillions draw takes place tomorrow (October 25th) and lucky lottery fans who get in the game could find they are on their way to the Caribbean or Australia sooner than they originally thought.
Following the news that Dave and Angela Dawes have become the UK’s third-richest lottery winners scooping €115 million playing EuroMillions last week, one journalist has commented that the love birds are lucky to have so many friends they want to share their fortune with.
According to the Daily Mail’s Jan Moir, the pair are drawing up a list of a dozen-or-so people that they will make millionaires, with those who qualify for this incredible cash gift having supported the pair in recent years.
“They are, indeed, a lucky couple, in more ways than one. There cannot be many of us who have 20 friends who have helped us throughout our lives,” she remarked.
Ms Moir added that the pair is now the envy of the entire nation and whatever they decide to do with their newfound lotto riches, they will be doing it in style “with a cherry on top”.
The newspaper reported earlier this week that Ms Dawes is planning to buy fast cars and luxury mansions, while her other half is intending to purchase a new engagement ring for his betrothed.
A pair of EuroMillionswinners have pledged to share their winnings with a dozen of their closest friends.
Dave and Angie Dawes – who live in a €79-a-week rented flat in London – won €115 million playing the European lottery last week, making them the third-richest lotto winners in the UK.
According to the Daily Mail, the pair are drawing up a list of loved ones they want to see share in their wealth.
Ms Dawes – who has one son from a previous marriage – is said to be dreaming of a life of fast cars and luxurious mansions, while her other half has promised to buy her a new engagement ring with their newfound riches.
The couple are not yet married and are planning their ceremony to take place next year.
Ms Dawes told the newspaper that the event will be a “bit more glamorous now”.
The next EuroMillionslottery draw will take place on Friday (October 14th) and lotto fans who get involved could be in with a chance of scooping the €27 million jackpot.
The third-biggest lottery winner in the UK has come forward to collect their enormous EuroMillions prize.
Camelot has revealed that the lucky lotto fan is now €116.4 million wealthier after their ticket matched all the numbers called on Friday’s (October 7th) draw, entitling them to the gigantic payout.
The jackpot – which ballooned over the weeks thanks to multiple rollovers – will make the fortunate lotto fan the 703rd-richest individual in the UK, with a personal wealth equivalent to legendary rocker David Bowie.
A spokesman from the National Lottery stated: “There will be no information on whether it is an individual or syndicate winner, or where the ticket was purchased, unless the ticket-holder decides to go public.”
So now the EuroMillions prize has been reset at €15 million – a life-changing amount for any lottery fan.
To be in with a chance of winning, lotto players can enter online at theLotter before tomorrow’s (October 11th) draw.
Lotto fans keen for a chance of winning a EuroMillions jackpot may have dreams of splashing some of that lovely cash on a holiday or a flashy new car – but some may be more interested in using it to show off to the neighbours.
This is according to life and business coach Rasheed Ogunlaru of Rasaru.com, who claims that competitive people are likely to stay competitive even after landing a huge payout from the lottery and that this need for “keeping up with the Joneses” should be resolved in other ways besides spending.
“Very often we want that windfall, we want a lot of money and we assume it’s going to solve all of our financial problems,” he stated, suggesting that taking a step back and absolving any hang-ups is a healthy way to begin a new life as a multi-millionaire.
With this in mind, lotto fans may want to get in the game today (October 7th) and play EuroMillions.
Tuesday’s (October 5th) jackpot was a rollover so now the top prize is an incredible €119 million.
A EuroMillions jackpot of €116.1 million is up for grabs for lotto fans this Friday (October 7th).
This will not only be one of the highest jackpots ever this year, but if a lucky lottery fan scoops the coveted top prize, they will be among the top richest lotto winners in the world.
If the jackpot goes to a Brit then they will become the third-wealthiest lottery money recipient in the history of the UK.
After last night’s (October 4th) rollover, a spokesman from the British National Lottery said: “It is one of the biggest ever on offer in the UK and if a single ticket-holder were to win they would be leap straight into third place on the exclusive National Lottery Rich List.”
And eager lottery fans who are already itching with their lucky numbers in anticipation of this massive rollover can play lotto online at theLotter, where they can enter the draw from the comfort of their computer.
Lottery fans eagerly awaiting tonight’s (October 4th) EuroMillions draw may already know how they will spend a multi-million-euro jackpot, but the National Lottery has reminded fans that such a prize can unlock the doors to a celebrity lifestyle.
According to the Plymouth Herald, the reigning Miss Cornwall boarded the Princess 42 luxury yacht in Sutton Harbour and was seen sipping champagne to advertise the sort of pastimes a lotto winner can enjoy.
Indeed, this evening’s EuroMillions draw could result in one lucky player taking home €1 million in prize money.
With a win of this size the recipient could jump up to 817th place on the list of the UK’s richest people and make them worth more than double Princes William and Harry.
A spokesperson for the National Lottery said: “A EuroMillions win … could launch you into the exclusive world of the rich and famous – private jets, super yachts and dream cars.”
A EuroMillionswinner has said he is going to make a disused train station into the home of his dreams.
According to the Daily Mirror, 38-year-old railway worker Mark Benbow had promised his wife that he would transform the dilapidated building in Merthyr Tydfil in Wales into a five-bedroom house for their family.
The father-of-four said he will be using his €1.1 million in lottery winnings to pay for the renovation, with the finished design including a darts room for Mr Benbow and his buddies.
“It needs a lot of work but I’ve made a good start and we should be able to move in next year,” he stated, adding: “It has been our dream to have a house just like this – one with plenty of space for children.”
The next EuroMillions draw will be tomorrow (October 4th), with the jackpot estimated to reach the €100 million mark – which is a life-changing sum for any lotto fan.
The EuroMillionslottery is famous for producing some of the world’s wealthiest lotto winners – with two record-smashing prizes claimed in the second half of this year alone.
Its enormous top payouts are all thanks to the frequency of its rollovers, which drive up those exciting payouts to such heights that can land the eventual beneficiary on one of the world’s rich lists.
Last week, it was announced that a lottery player in France has become the country’s 247th wealthiest man or woman after claiming the second largest EuroMillions prize of €162.2 million.
Furthermore, in July this year, Christine and Colin Weir from Scotland were whisked to 418th place on the Sunday Times Rich List after bagging the biggest ever EuroMillions jackpot of €185 million.
Yesterday (September 27th), the EuroMillions top prize rolled over again, with the jackpot now standing at a very generous €48 million.
This sum may well be snatched by one lucky lotto fan on Friday (September 30th), when the next draw takes place – but who is to say? Maybe it will rollover yet again, thrilling lottery players across the world.
A very lucky EuroMillions player is now more than €1 million richer after their luck came in playing the European lottery earlier this month.
Reports are claiming the winner is from London, because the ticket was bought in the Westminster area of the capital city.
A spokesperson for Camelot, the UK’s lottery authority, said: “We’re urging everyone to check their old EuroMillions tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding so that this prize can turn someone into the newest member of the lottery millionaire club.”
It could be that the fortunate EuroMillions fan is biding their time and preparing themselves for life as a millionaire, as they have until 15:00 local time on March 4th next year to collect their juicy payout – after which the money will be donated to the lottery’s various charities.
Lotto lovers interested in grabbing a seven-figure sum for themselves in the form of a EuroMillions prize can try their luck on Friday (September 23rd), as the jackpot is set to be €27 million.
After months of rollovers, one lucky French lotto fan scooped the coveted second-largest EuroMillions jackpot last Tuesday (September 13th), taking home €162.2 million.
And last Friday (September 16th) the refreshed prize of €15 million was apparently claimed by a very fortunate lottery player from neighbouring European country Belgium – so does this mean the EuroMillions trend for rollover top prizes has been broken for the time being?
If so, then there’s no time like the present to get in the game and play EuroMillions with a chance to grab that €15 million jackpot – because the pattern for first tier payouts could end in rollovers again any day now.
The lucky Belgian picked all of the balls drawn in Friday’s game correctly. They were 2, 8, 17, 39, 42 with the Lucky Stars 3 and 10.
And EuroMillions fans who bought a ticket for the August 5th draw may want to have a look for the slip, as the Barnet & Potters Bar Times reported recently that somebody who entered that draw in the area has yet to claim a life-changing €680,000 prize – which will need to be claimed within 180 days of the draw before it goes to charitable causes.

A very lucky lotto fan from France is said to have scooped the second-largest ever EuroMillions jackpot after the draw on Tuesday (September 13th).
The fortunate Frenchman or woman is now €162.2 million richer, but so far he or she has not claimed the life-changing prize from the Francaise des Jeux lottery organisation.
Reports are suggesting the now hugely wealthy lottery enthusiast is from the famous brandy-producing region of Calvados.
To put their enormous windfall in perspective, the EuroMillions jackpot could buy the anonymous winner some 13.5 million bottles of their homeland’s own Calvados apple spirit with change to spare – but given the circumstances, something from the Champagne province may be a more appropriate beverage to splash out on.
So now, the EuroMillions lottery jackpot starts again at €15 million, but this prize is certainly not one to be sniffed at.
Lottery fans can enter in time for tomorrow’s (September 16th) draw at theLotter to be in with a chance of getting their hands on this fantastic prize.
You could be a EuroMillionaire! Play at theLotter!
A very lucky lottery fan can thank their lucky stars today – as they obviously selected them correctly after scooping the top prize in last night’s (September 13th) EuroMillions draw.
The fortunate lotto player, who has not yet been identified, has landed his or herself a life-altering €162.2 million, after they picked all five balls (9, 28, 30, 32, 49) and the two lucky star bonus balls (9, 10) correctly.
Thanks to this gargantuan payout, if the sole winner is a Brit, they have now been catapulted up to 512th place on the UK’s rich list, making them wealthier than many household name stars of stage, screen and the music scene.
Even though €162.2 million is hardly a sum to be sniffed at, the enormous prize did not beat the EuroMillions record win bagged by Christine and Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland in July this year, who took home €185 million after striking lucky with their numbers.
Individuals across Europe are likely to be eagerly anticipating the results of the EuroMillions draw tonight (September 13th), as the jackpot has reached a staggering €159 million.
People throughout the continent are likely to head online to play the numbers game in the hope they might transform their lives forever.
And should the winning lottery ticket holder happen to be from the UK, he or she – judging by the Sunday Times Rich List – would automatically become the 512th richest person in the nation.
This would see them acquire wealth greater than that held by Eric Clapton, the singer and guitarist whose greatest hits include singles such as Layla, Crossroads and Wonderful Tonight.
So why not try your luck with tonight’s EuroMillions? After all, the rollovers – which occurred for the 12th consecutive time on Friday September 9th when five players were just one Lucky Star away from claiming the big prize – cannot go on forever.
This week could see many people purchasing a Euromillions lottery ticket online in the hope of landing the second-biggest jackpot in the game’s history.
With nobody emerging victorious from last night’s (September 6th) draw, an 11th rollover means the winning ticket for Friday’s (September 9th) game could bag themselves an enormous €146 million.
The numbers that came out last night were 35, 42, 47, 48 and 50, while the Lucky Stars were 8 and 9.
It means many players will be waiting for the weekend to arrive with great anticipation and high numbers may choose to purchase a ticket online sooner rather than later to ensure they are ready for the draw.
And people may be particularly encouraged to try their luck with the numbers game this week after the last person to win such a grand amount in the EuroMillions was a UK ticket holder, whose hefty cash injection would have propelled them up the Sunday Times rich list to a position similar to that held by global megastar couple David and Victoria Beckham.
Lotto enthusiasts eager to bag themselves a hefty windfall in tomorrow’s (September 6th) Euromillions draw may be pleased to learn the jackpot has climbed to €125 million.
With nobody clinching the big prize in last Friday’s game, a tenth-successive rollover means the entrant lucky enough to have purchased the winning ticket this time around is likely to come away with the second biggest EuroMillions jackpot ever seen, the Press Association reports.
Colin and Chris Weir from Largs, Ayrshire, are the current holders of the biggest-ever jackpot prize having won big last month, while those who scooped the current second-best EuroMillions prize chose to keep their identity secret in October 2010.
The winning numbers for Friday’s draw were 12, 26, 37, 38 and 44, while 4 and 7 were drawn in the EuroMillions Lucky Star game.
EuroMillions players could have the chance to walk away with a maximum €185 million if the jackpot continues to rise over the coming weeks – a huge amount sure to transform anyone’s life.
Lotto fans out there may be positively itching with anticipation ahead of tonight’s (September 2nd) EuroMillionsdraw, because the top prize has risen to a whopping €114 million.
This jackpot is one of the biggest in the game’s history, with the world famous, record-smashing €185 million top payout in July going to Christine and Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland.
The second-highest EuroMillions jackpot also went to a British couple in October 2010, when the pair – who opted to remain anonymous – scooped €128 million.
According to UK lottery organisation Camelot, if the prize goes to just a single player tonight then they will become the third-biggest winners in the history of the game.
And with all this hype about the EuroMillions, you would think lotto fans would be memorising their numbers and keeping their tickets safe, but apparently a €680,000 prize won in the UK is still unclaimed.
The Barnet & Potters Bar Times reported that the life-changing sum was won on August 5th after the winner picked the five main numbers correctly.
That EuroMillions jackpot just keeps on climbing as another rollover on Saturday (August 27th) saw the top prize creep up to a whopping €97 million.
And lotto fans looking forward to getting in the game the next time this continental lottery draw takes place certainly don’t have long to wait, with the balls due to be called this evening (August 30th).
There are plenty of reasons to pick your favourite lotto numbers for this exciting game, not least because it produced the record-smashing winners from Largs in Scotland Christine and Colin Weir, who walked away with €185 million in July this year.
And even the breakdown prizes are life-changing, with the second payout coming in at more than €133,000 – not a sum to be sniffed at.
Last week, the Barnet & Potters Bar Times in the UK reported that a lucky local EuroMillions fan has a ticket entitling them to a €680,000 payout.
A National Lottery spokeswoman told the paper that people should check their pockets and bags in case the winner is them.
More people could be looking to play lotto online as the word ‘EuroMillions‘ made Google’s list of fastest-rising search terms this summer in the UK.
People may also have been looking to find out more about the European lottery because of July’s record-smashing rollover of €185 million – which was eventually won by Christine and Colin Weir from Largs in Scotland and who have intrigued the press with how they are spending their wealth.
It’s been an interesting couple of months for the international game, as fellow Scots Angela and John Sutherland of Wick won €324,950 playing the game and a lucky Meath couple also struck lucky taking home €500,000.
However, media focus has remained firmly on the Weirs since scooping the massive top prize in July, with rumours circling about holidays to the Canary Islands, possible property acquisitions and long stays in luxury hotels.
Perhaps you could be the next big EuroMillions winner if you play lotto online? And where better to enter the draw than at theLotter, where it’s as easy as entering your favourite numbers and clicking play.
One of the most important decisions for lottery fans to make is which lotto game to splash their cash on, as a juicy payout could depend on which draws they prefer to follow.
This is according to independent lottery expert The Lottery Guy, who provides hints and tips for people looking to maximise their chances of taking home a top prize.
“Which game to play [is] a step that almost nobody thinks about. We are either blinded by jumbo jackpots, or pick whatever game looks interesting,” he commented, adding that players should investigate the games available to them and think carefully about which ones they are more likely to win.
The Lottery Guy stated that a good way to find out which lottos are potential winners is by checking out the odds on lottery websites and comparing the different draws.
Here at theLotter there is a huge choice of lotteries to try out, with US games such as USA Powerball and USA MegaMillions and the world-famous EuroMillions draw.
Record-smashing EuroMillions winners Christine and Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland have been making sure their €185 million in lotto winnings is keeping them well looked after, as the couple and their two children are living the life of Riley in a luxury hotel.
The retired nurse and cameraman have been staying at the five-star Turnberry Hotel in nearby Girvan with their grown-up children Jamie and Carly and have racked up a bill of £30,000 since checking in.
Their sighting at the spa is the first time they have been seen in their home county since they went public about their enormous windfall.
Apart from a holiday and their current residence, the couple have not made any massive purchases with their lottery money, but have made it known when they move house they want to stay near Largs.
Earlier this month it was rumoured by the Daily Star that the Weirs were set to buy a €61 million mansion not too far from their beloved marina town, but so far this has neither been denied nor confirmed.
Fancy being a EuroMillions millionaire? Play at theLotter!
Lotto players who are lucky enough to have picked all the right numbers for a EuroMillions draw may be overwhelmed by the massive prize they have just won – and one expert has suggested taking a time out is exactly what such fortunate lottery fans should do.
Piya Khanna, executive coach and change consultant with changetosucceed.com, said that at least one week of work is essential to those who find themselves overnight multi-millionaires and does not recommend people quit their jobs immediately.
“[They should] think about what’s really important to them and how they would like their lives to be going forward with the new resources available to them, before making any decisions,” she advised.
Dreams such as a new home, travelling the world and the sort of lifestyle they would like are all things to consider, according to Ms Khanna, as well as long-term security in the form of healthcare and a pension.
And lotto fans who do not mind the thought of becoming obscenely rich may want to play EuroMillions tonight, as the estimated jackpot has skyrocketed to €53 million.
The life-altering sum of €121,000 is still floating around Scotland unclaimed after a winning EuroMillionsticket was bought in the area.
According to the Lennox Herald, lotto officials have revealed that the fortunate lottery fan’s numbers match up with all five balls and one of the two Lucky Stars drawn for the game, which was played on Friday July 22nd.
The newspaper is trying to jog readers’ memories to find out if they did or did not buy a ticket that day and in a bid to get the grey matter shifting, it has reminded people that DJ Fresh’s Louder was the song that topped the UK singles chart at the time of the draw.
A spokesman for the UK National Lottery has said: “We’re urging everyone to check their old tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding.”
And lotto fans who want to try their hand at EuroMillions can get in the game tomorrow (August 12th), with a chance to win the €46 million jackpot.
EuroMillions fans may still be reeling from the excitement of the record-smashing €185 million jackpot won by Christine and Colin Weir from Largs in Scotland last month, but August’s lottery jackpots are also climbing ever higher.
After nobody won Tuesday’s (August 9th’s) €35 million top prize, the jackpot for the European lottery has been ratcheted up to €46 million, edging ever closer to the more dizzying figures the game recently reached.

And it may take just one more rollover for the next EuroMillions winner to afford the €61 million home the Weirs are said to have their eye on in Ayrshire – if reports from the Daily Star of their interest in buying the mansion are true.
Record-smashing EuroMillions lottery winners Colin and Christine Weir are being tipped to spend some of their €185 million winnings on a mansion.
According to the Daily Star, the couple – who are from the Scottish marina town of Largs – have decided to stay local rather than move somewhere more exotic with their lotto payout.
The most expensive property on the market in the area is worth €61 million and could be the Weirs’ next home.
Titled the Ferness, the villa is a secluded mansion enclosed in private grounds and screened from prying eyes by walled gardens and trees.
If they did move there then they could enjoy such features as a snooker room, cinema, gym, wine cellar, three reception rooms and a coach house.
And lotto fans who fancy winning big on the EuroMillions can play today (August 9th), as the jackpot has rolled over yet again – totalling a whopping €35 million.
Lotto fans who cannot resist the thrill of a rollover must be on the edge of their seats, as Friday’s (August 5th’s) EuroMillions draw once again yielded no jackpot winners.
As a result, the top prize now totals a life-changing €35 million – which is enough to make anybody’s dream come true twice over at least.
Lottery enthusiasts will already know when these exciting draws take place, but for players new to the EuroMillions scene, the next game will be tomorrow (August 9th) – as the numbers are called on Tuesdays and Fridays.
And you don’t even have to live in one of the participating countries to get in the game with a chance to win these extraordinary cash prizes, because here at theLotter you can simply enter five numbers from 1 to 50 and two bonus balls from 1 to 11 and click Play to enter the lotto draw.
You never know, your numbers could make you the next Christine or Colin Weir of Largs in Scotland, who won a record-breaking €185 playing EuroMillions last month.
Christine and Colin Weir may be among the UK’s financial elite thanks to their record-breaking €185 million lottery win playing EuroMillions last month, but the couple have announced they do not plan on straying from their beloved hometown.
The couple said they would be moving home with their newfound riches, but not too far away from the Scottish port of Largs, where they are still residing as they get used to the idea of being multi-millionaires.
And the pair have also made it known that they are not going to be lavishing the entirety of their wealth on themselves and said their two children – who are both in their twenties – were high on the list when it comes to supporting others.
The told the Daily Record: “We want to think about how we can do some good with it, not just for the here and now, but for future generations.”
And tonight’s EuroMillions draw could land another lucky lotto player with a life-changing prize, with €26 million up for grabs!
