“I almost threw the ticket in the trash”

He will not regret his trip to France. While passing through Saint-Priest, a Bulgarian transporter stopped at the Eight à Eight mini-market. And for a starting purchase of 5 €, the player won 100,000 times more by scratching a Cash. The year is off to a good start for him. As a benchmark, the minimum wage in Bulgaria is just over € 280.

“I had a kind of intuition while shopping”

This is the first time that the driver has bought a Cash ticket. “I had a hunch while shopping, he confided to the French Games. I even almost threw the ticket in the trash”. He finally changed his mind and called a friend to verify.

Professional retraining

The lucky winner is considering a professional retraining. He also announces that he is going to spoil his children.

The last big wins at a game from La Française des Jeux, in the Rhône, date back to last month. In December, two Lyonnais each won respectively 500,000 and 548,000 euros, by playing Cash (already) and Loto foot.

This player of course does not dethrone the winner of L’Arbresle who, in 2010, won more than 30 million euros at the Euromillions. He remains, to this day, the department’s biggest winner at a game from the Française des Jeux.

And of course, not the lucky winner of the Euromillions draw of December 11, 2020 and his jackpot of 200 million euros. He had validated his grid on the Internet.
