As the headline goes the Euromillions Lottery is set to unveil a 50 pence increase in ticket prices. The beauty of this is that the price rise is only restricted to UK lottery players and not to anyone else. The theory behind this move is that the increase is going to fund an entirely new fund that is designed to create a new millionaire in the United Kingdom each week. It is supposedly a Raffle and there will be according to reports a a Super Raffle as well with prizes of up to £20million on offer. Camelot who manage both the UK Lottery and the Euromillion Lottery have indicated that they have taken this step to add a bit of excitement to the Euro Million Lottery.
Dianne Thompson the chief Executive of Camelot had the following to say “With the new Millionaire Raffle, we want to offer the best of both worlds, making EuroMillions even more exciting for players by creating a guaranteed UK millionaire every single week” We think that this is a great idea and look forward to the unveiling of a UK millionaire on a weekly basis. In Ireland they have Europlus and now we have millionaire raffle. How exciting.
The new Millionaire raffle is being backed by a £3 million advertising campaign that is sure to prick the interest and get player levels up on the Euromillion Lottery. The Lottery is already the largest lump sum tax free lottery in the world and enhancing it for UK lottery players is a great move.
Each and every single Euromillions player will automatically take part in the raffle and will be assigned 3 letters and 6 numbers and presumable these letters and numbers would then need to be drawn . The winner would then become a instant millionaire . This particular euromillions prize is only available to UK players.

We wonder at people who play the Euro Million Lottery and then dont claim there prizes. This is probably the biggest singular factor in why people should purchase Euro Million Lottery tickets on the Internet. It is impossible to mislay the tickets . Apparently there is a Irish winner of a €1 Millions Euro Millions Plus Jackpot who has not yet claimed the prize.
The Euro Million Plus game can only be played in Ireland at this stage.The person who won this jackpot has only got 14 days more to claim the jackpot so we do hope that they realise that they have won in due course.According to reports the ticket was bought at Doran’s SuperValu shopping centre on the Main Street in Graiguenamanagh in County Kilkenny where my grandma is from. The winning EuroMillion Plus Jackpot numbers are as follows :
1, 19, 20, 25, and 31
The Euro Millions Lottery main jackpot was not won this last Friday so it means that there is a rollover of the main jackpot to take place on the 3rd of July 2009 . The estimated jackpot on this day is £24 million.
Without further ado here are the 5 numbers and 2 lucky stars that were drawn :
6 - 11 - 21 - 30 - 39 - 2 - 8
What would you do with a win of £24 Million ? Well if you are not in it you cant win it so make sure you purchase your Lottery tickets in time for the next Euro Million Lottery draw.
