Urgent appeal issued as time running out for Lotto winner to claim €500k prize

The National Lottery has issued an urgent appeal to the public as time is running out for a Lotto jackpot winner to claim their prize of €500,000.
The life-changing sum was won in the 2pm draw Daily Millions Plus draw on Friday, March 28, with Lotto bosses revealing that the winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased at Tesco in Stillorgan Shopping Centre, Stillorgan, Co Dublin, on the day of the draw.
The winning numbers from the 2pm Daily Million Plus draw on Friday, March 28, were: 17, 22, 23, 25, 30, 37 and the bonus was 32.
Ticket holders have 90 days from the date of the draw to claim their prize, which means the Dublin winner has until close of business on Thursday, June 26 to come forward – just two weeks to go.
The National Lottery is urging all Daily Million Plus players in Dublin to carefully check their old tickets from late March to ensure they do not miss out on claiming this substantial prize.
"We are eagerly trying to reunite a Daily Million Plus player in Stillorgan with their €500,000 prize. The winning ticket was purchased at Tesco in Stillorgan Shopping Centre and matched all numbers in the 2pm draw on 28th March," said National Lottery spokesperson Emma Monaghan.
"With the deadline fast approaching on Thursday, 26th June, we're encouraging everyone in the area to check any old tickets they might have tucked away. You never know - this could be your winning moment, and you don't even know it yet!"
If you're holding the winning ticket, you are advised to sign the back of it and keep it somewhere safe. You should then contact the National Lottery prize claims team as soon as possible on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie. Arrangements will be made for you to collect your prize at Lottery HQ.

Lotto depression

Sir, – So the largest ever lotto jackpot in Ireland has been won. Being based in Dublin, I had the few minutes of excitement as I checked my tickets, hoping I had won it. Alas, my dreams were dashed. Now I am in a lotto depression. I am curious as to who has won the jackpot. Now forget the 'it would be lovely if a friend or neighbour won it'. Sorry, but the green-eyed jealousy monster won't allow that. I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking that way. Suddenly, €250 million is way too much for one person or group to win! It will destroy his/her/their lives. READ MORE Yes, if it can't be me, it shouldn't be anyone else! As I said, post-lotto dejection has set in. Therapy may be required to ease this, or else, there is one other option. I'll just have to go and buy another ticket. – Yours, etc, BRIAN CULLEN, Dublin 16.

I saved my scruffy trainers thanks to a 17p trick – now they're so pristine, people refuse to believe it's the same pair

ALTHOUGH white trainers are a wardrobe staple, we all know they're impossible to keep pristine - especially in the unpredictable British weather. But before you donate the scruffy old pair, see if it's possible to 2 One thrifty cleaning fan wowed social media users with her epic trainer transformation Credit: facebook/Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips 2 Siti used a bargain find you can purchase at Tesco for less than a fiver Credit: facebook/Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips The affordable cleaning trick was shared on Facebook by Siti Halisa whose old trainers looked so good following the hack that people refused to believe it's the same pair. According to Siti, one of the 537k members of the popular Siti told fellow cleaning fans she had heard about the product online and was so amazed by the results, she decided to share them too. Uploading snaps of the old Nike trainers before and after the hack, Siti wrote: ''Revived my white trainers from the tip on this group! read more on cleaning ''Soaked in napisan for 30 mins and washed in the washing machine on 30 quick wash and left in the sun to dry.'' Available in Tesco for £4.50, the product claims to kill ''99.9% bacteria in your laundry'', as well as remove stains when the washing machine is set at 30C. The box contains 800g of product that's enough for around 26 washes - which works out to be just 17p per single use. For heavy stains, double the dose - and while the hack will be more expensive, it'll still be cheaper than forking out for new trainers. Most read in Fabulous To achieve the best results, simply add two tablespoons of Napisan into five litres of water. Soak your clothes - or scruffy footwear - for two hours and then rinse. Savvy woman shares how she creates more drying space inside with £2.99 Home Bargains buy & it even works outside too According to the description online, Napisan can be used in children's items, such as bibs, shirts, nappies, soft toys, as well as family laundry, including sheets, handkerchiefs, towels, The brand strongly advises not use Napisan on silks, woolen or non-colourfast items. The jaw-dropping difference between the two photos has clearly left many open-mouthed - as Laundry tips Catherine Green, sustainable cleaning expert at smol shared her laundry tips. How often should you be remaking your bed? When it comes to your bed, maintaining a hygienic sleep setup can actually improve your sleep quality, helping you start every day better. Most people shed 500 million skin cells per day and a lot of that ends up in bed for dust mites to feed on. And those with asthma or allergies might see symptoms worsen by sleeping on dirty sheets! You want to be washing your sheets once a week - or every 10 days if you don't suffer from allergies and wear nightclothes. Bedding builds up with sweat, skin cells and oils quickly, even if it doesn't look dirty. Using an effective detergent like What temperature do smol recommend then? For your regular weekly washes I recommend washing most loads at 20°C for 30 minutes. It's gentler on fabrics, slashes energy use, and still delivers excellent stain removal with the right detergent. A colder wash can actually be more effective if you opt for a bio detergent as its enzymes need cooler water; too hot and they lose their ability to digest stains. A wash at 60°c (unless you have silk sheets) every now and again can help kill off dust mites and other nasties. What's the difference between bio and non-bio detergent? Bio detergents contain enzymes, which are especially good at breaking down tough stains like food, grass, or sweat. It's best used in mid to low temperature washes (ideally between 20-40°C) as anything hotter can cause them not to work effectively. Non-bio skips the enzymes, which in turn makes it more suitable for those with sensitive skin or allergies. Although non-bio doesn't contain enzymes, it's still great at removing stains and keeping your clothes clean, you just may need to use a slightly higher temperature setting to aid with the cleaning process. One woman said: ''Love this thank you, will be purchasing napisan today to try myself.'' Another, meanwhile, wasn't too convinced, writing: ''They are not the same trainers all the creases in the front wouldn't disappear.'' A third chimed in: ''Well done. I'm always scared to put any Nike air trainers with an air bubble in the washing machine even on a low temp and spin.'' ''They look brilliant,'' someone else penned. After being met with some scepticism, Siti hit back at those who refused to believed, writing: '' Can we just establish they are the same trainers but on the other hand it has made me chuckle that people have took the time to inspect my scruffy old trainers so much .''
