A lucky punter from Wexford has just won a nice little price…
A Tellybingo player in Wexford, who wished to remain anonymous, was still in shock popping into the Winners Room to collect a Snowball prize worth exactly €50,005.
They won in the Friday 6th September draw.
Their winning ticket was purchased at Maxol Bellefield in Enniscorthy.
“You probably won’t believe this but I only started playing Telly Bingo five weeks ago so this is total beginners luck! I have had a few wins so far in the game between Lucky lines and Four corners so it’s been great but getting the Snowball was unexpected.”
“There were about 10 winners waiting on just one number when I was playing on Friday afternoon. It was down to the final number and my luck was most definitely in! My motto has always been that if you’re not in, you can’t win and look how true that’s proved to be,” the lucky punter told Wexford Weekly.
Nearly 30 cent in every €1 spent on National Lottery games goes back to Good Causes in the areas of sport, youth, health, welfare, education, arts, heritage and the Irish Language.
In total, more than €6 billion has been raised for Good Causes since the National Lottery was established 36 years ago. In 2022 alone, €259.5 million was raised for local Good Causes in communities across Ireland.
