EuroMillions has been creating winners for nearly two decades and the jackpot prize certainly never disappoints. While the top prize is always impressive, some of the winner stories are what really make people sit up and pay attention.

We all know that winning a national lottery can be a life-changing moment and today we’re taking a closer look at how one jackpot prize changed a winner’s future forever.

Ian Pearce and Lyn Sexton often play EuroMillions whenever there was a rollover and when Sexton went to enter the Tuesday EuroMillions draw, the cashier let him know that there was a special EuroMillions jackpot on the Friday draw and he entered on a whim.

While they certainly hoped to be a lucky winner one day, they purchased their entries and continued their life as they knew it. They enjoyed weekends away in their caravan in West Wales and it was after one weekend away that they realised their lives had changed.

After checking the winning numbers online, they were in utter shock at what they were seeing; they were a winning ticket holder.

To win the EuroMillions lottery, players need to match all seven numbers during the draw. However, despite not matching all seven numbers, this UK couple matched enough numbers to win £1 million overnight. The ticket they bought on a whim turned out to be the best investment they ever made because they now had a winning EuroMillions ticket that they could cash in.

Since their big win, they have sold their humble caravan and instead of seaside getaways their winning ticket has allowed them to travel the world instead. To date, they have already visited 65 countries and they are always making arrangements to see more of the world.

A single game changed their life and every week life-changing amounts of money can be won. The EuroMillions prize claims team is always busy because this UK couple aren’t the only ones who bought their winning tickets on a whim.

UK ticket holder takes the EuroMillions jackpot

Another winning ticket bought on a whim

The Larkin’s Gala service station sits in a unique location bordering Clare, Limerick and Tipperary. The stop is often visited by many passing through and many lottery tickets are sold on a daily basis.

After a massive EuroMillions draw, National Lottery officials came knocking with unexpected news; their services store had sold the winning quick pick ticket that was worth €30,928,078.

As the store borders Clare, Limerick or Tipperary there was a debate around who would claim the win but, as a proud Tipperary couple, they claimed the win for Tipp. The store owners were also paid an impressive €25,000 because any retailer who sells a winning ticket receives a much-welcomed commission.

The details of the winning ticket holder was still a mystery to many but the lucky winning ticket holder became the 17th EuroMillions jackpot winner in Ireland and we hope they cash in their grand prize soon!

Massive jackpot goes unclaimed

Another EuroMillions prize that is still unclaimed is the £1,000,000 which drew on 26 April 2022. National Lottery officials have announced that the winning ticket was purchased in Belfast and this UK ticket holder is encouraged to come forward as soon as they realise they’re now a millionaire.
