Millionaire raffle 2024

    generally there will be an increase in sales the week of New Year’s Eve. 26th and beyond will when it ramps up and it will ramp up.

    Not sure what all the begrudging is about either- big deal if someone spends a few quid on a raffle ticket once a year. I never in my life have an inclination to buy lotto tickets or anything like it (scratch cards etc) but I will do the raffle, max I’ll buy is two tickets and it’s plenty enough.

    Haven’t been fortunate so far (only at it the past 3 years in fairness), but it’s always a bit of fun and excitement New Year’s Eve. With all the festivities and excitement from Christmas and New Years never feel too disappointed for long when there’s no win. Maybe this year is my year- who knows! 🥳

    Don’t mind the scrooges who complain you’re wasting your money- sure it’s your money! If they had anything better to do they’d worry about their own.

    My Dad just gave me and my sibs tickets.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,822 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    So so so many people buy these tickets as a '' CHEAP'' gift, it's very very likely that someone gave a ticket, and got a cheap bottle of wine in exchange, they will so so be livid when it wins 😅😅😅😄😅



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭d@rk l0rd


    539XXX at 7.30pm this evening. 👍

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,404 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    So completely terrible value. Better chances sticking it on roulette or betting on the bonus ball in the bookies.

    Maybe this year I will win something.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,048 ✭✭✭Dr Turk Turkelton


    Bought my last one yesterday which brought my total to nine.

    I reckon they will sell out the 600k as that was 583xxx.

    Also was gifted one as well so I have ten.

    A video about how rich the McAllisters must have been to live in that house popped up in my YouTube a few days ago.

    671 Lincoln Avenue in Winnetka, Chicago would be worth about $5.25m.

    Ticket numbers are over 599k now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,292 ✭✭✭Crunchienut


    Seems to be gone from the app so looks like they may be sold out



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 133 ✭✭geminiman63


    They are, it says sold out at the bottom of the home page.

    Good luck to all here who bought a ticket. But I didn't buy one, last year was the first year I didn't buy one. Never won a thing on any of them. I have the worst luck when it comes to the Lotto. The most I've ever won in over a quarter of a century playing every Lotto draw going, Daily Millions, Telly Bingo, Lotto, Euro Millions, you name it, was €104. And that was the only time I've won a 3 figure prize. I recently went 40 National Lottery tickets in a row without winning a single cent, not even a poxy free Daily Millions ticket. When the drought ended, I won, wait for it, €3.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,439 ✭✭✭Dazler97


    Best of luck to everyone who has a ticket I've 2 and gave mam 1 so 3 in total , been doing this 4 years running and zilch so far hopefully tonight can change that



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭d@rk l0rd


    So they're making €15,000,000 (€25 * 600,000 tickets) out of this but the total prize money comes to £6,342,500 ((1 * €1m) + (6 * €100,000) + (15 * €10,000) + (45 * €5,000) + (302 * €1,000) + (8,131 * €500)), so what happens to the left over €8,657,500 they're making out of this? 🤔
