A month of millionaires!

Organizers of many world lotteries from time to time conduct various special raffles, that’s usually are devoted to some noteworthy event.

EuroMillions is one of them. The popular lottery-giant, which is held in many European countries, likes occasionally to gratify its players with some surprises. We will tell you about one of the most ambitious and famous series of raffles in the history of the British version of the lottery EuroMillions.

This event happened in 2011 on the eve of the New Year and was named "Month of Millionaires". Then from November 25th to December 23rd 50 prizes were drawn one million pounds each. The winners were chosen randomly from among the players who purchased the ticket for the draw, thanks to a special code - Raffle. This combination consisted of three letters and six figures and was printed on every EuroMillions ticket purchased in the UK.

The winning series began on November 25, when the first 18 lucky millionaires were determined. Then, during each next draw, was picked one more prize. In the final draw of the "Month of Millionaires", which took place before Christmas - December 23, were picked another 25 prizes worth one million. In just a month of EuroMillions, 50 players had their Raffle code chosen and they received their precious million pounds.

However, these are not all the surprises that lottery players received during this period. For that month, the main lottery EuroMillions Jackpot was won three times! The first time it happened on November 23, that very day when another 18 players became millionaires. The sum of the Jackpot of the only winner was 30 million pounds sterling. The next time the luck came to one of the players on December 2 - the amount of his prize was 23 million pounds sterling. The third Jackpot of the "Month of Millionaires" was collected on December 16. The size of this major prize was 39 million pounds.

Unfortunately, a series of lottery EuroMillions "Month of Millionaires" was held only once and it is not known whether it will be repeated. If something becomes known, then you will certainly learn about this first on our website. We just want to add some our wisdom - believe in yourself and your winnings will come to you, right in your hands!
