Tonight brings with it this week’s first National Lottery Lotto draw, and it’s a double rollover which means one lucky winner could get their hands on a whopping £5.2m. It’s a life-changing sum of cash, and having that much money land in your bank account is almost unimaginable.
You could immediately quit your job and start living your dream life. You could travel the world, pay off any debts and give to friends and family, as well as to some deserving causes.
There’s also £500,000 to be won in the Thunderball draw, taking place at 8.15pm, meaning you have plenty of chances to be a winner. There are multiple opportunities to win the Lotto as draws take place every Wednesday and Saturday.
To play the game, choose six numbers from one to 59 or choose a lucky dip. It costs £2 per play. As well as being in with a chance of winning serious cash, playing the Lotto also helps raise around £30m each week for UK good causes.
The winning Lotto numbers are drawn at 8pm, followed by the Thunderball slightly later at 8:15pm.
Tonight’s winning Lotto numbers are: 6, 9, 12, 15, 47, 55 and the Bonus Ball is 56.
Tonight’s winning Thunderball numbers are: 8, 9, 18, 24, 37 and the Thunderball is 4.
