Co. Meath seems to be the luckiest county!
A husband and wife from there have proved that lightening can stroke twice after they won more than €100,000 in lotto wins from the same shop.
Last Thursday the wife won €10,000 on Telly Bingo on a ticket purchased in Eurospar in Duleek, Co. Meath. Two days later her retired husband won €92,652 on a Quickpick ticket bought in the same shop.
The TellyBingo ticket was purchased on the day of the anniversary of the death of the couple’s son. And the Saturday Lotto win was on the day of the anniversary of his funeral.
“We really believe he was up there looking after us” the great grandmother said. “It is such a coincidence that our wins came at this time. On the day of Telly Bingo I had gone to my son’s grave to clean it up and say a prayer.”
The couple have no plans yet on how they will spend the money. “We have a few family Holy Communions in the family this month so this will certainly help towards that,” said the winning wife. “And we will do a few jobs on the house also. But we won’t be going mad.”
Thrilled for them!
