On Monday 26 December, a lucky man from Haute Savoie won two million euros in the Christmas Grand Lotto. He is the second department winner to hit the jackpot in the national lottery this year.
Father Christmas arrived a little late in Haute-Savoie during the draw on 26 December. One lucky winner, whose identity and municipality of residence remain unknown, won €2 million in the Grand Loto de Noël.
The €15 million prize pool was split among all intermediate winners. That evening, a grid was successful in Haute-Savoie with the only player who managed to find the 6 correct numbers (They the winning numbers were: 6 23 32 48 49 and lucky number 4).
This is the department’s second winner this year. On June 18, a pair of Sciez shared a €4 million Loto prize pool with another winner from Bouches-du-Rhône. 2 million euros richer, this couple wants above all to spoil their loved ones thanks to this sum.
According to place Tirage-Gagnant.comthe two winners of the year do not enter the Department’s Top 5. The earnings record still belongs to the player from Évian-les-Bains who won 61.1 million euros in EuroMillions in February 2006.
