Guaranteed £80M EuroMillions Jackpot


Play for Free with LottoByText

Has it seemed a bit quiet in the EuroMillions world recently? Hold your horses! This is big news: there is a massive GUARANTEED £80 million* jackpot up for grabs this Friday on the EuroMillions and it could be yours!

The draw on Friday 28th of September marks the second multi-million pound EuroMillions Superdraw of 2012 so far. Superdraw events are big news in the lottery world and don’t come round too often.

The most recent special EuroMillions draw was for the opening of the London 2012 Olympic games. If you can’t remember back that far, the iconic EuroMillions draw was bought to life by the National Lottery as a ‘thank you’ for the British public’s help to fund this year’s summer Olympics.

100 millionaires were made the night of the 27th July through the ‘Millionaire Raffle’. It is unfortunate that, as of yet, not all of the millionaire raffle winners have been found. However, just this week, LottoByText news learnt of one lucky winner from Harrow who finally claimed, bringing the grand total of claimed winners up to 97.

This Friday’s Superdraw is slightly different. The ‘100 millionaires’ draw guaranteed that 100 people would be made instant millionaires, separate from the standard jackpot amount. This Friday’s draw, however, is like a typical draw but with a guaranteed £80 million* jackpot.

Here’s some Superdraw trivia for you to impress your friends with on Friday night:

The very first Superdraw took place on Saturday 7th January 1995 (only the 8th ever draw from the National Lottery) with a guaranteed jackpot of £10 million. The first ever Wednesday draw on 5th February 1997 was also a Superdraw with an unusual jackpot amount of £9,999,999. The three subsequent Wednesday draws were Superdraws – designed to give the (then new) Wednesday evening draw a kick-start.

Oh, how times have changed! The first Superdraws talked of £10 million jackpots, whereas nowadays it’s more like jackpots of €100 million.

Has inflation really increased the jackpots by this amount? Not really. Remember that Superdraws are now part of the EuroMillions, thus increasing the amount of people playing in the draw and also the cost to play.
