For her, for him or for them, there is no need to celebrate them happy holidays. With a check for one million euros, the difficult ends of the month disappear and 2025 promises to be under good auspices. And there’s no need to try to find out the name of the lucky person since the winners want to remain anonymous.
The only information provided by Française des jeux in a press release dated Thursday December 19, 2024: the exceptional draw allowed twenty-nine French people to each win one million euros.
And in the geographical distribution, only one winner in Loir-et-Cher, also the only winner in the Centre-Val de Loire region.
At the Rottes tobacco press
Excellent news also for Céline and Sébastien Bertin, the new owners of the tobacco press on avenue Clemenceau in the Rottes district.
“We don’t know the name of the winner, we don’t know if it’s a regular customer or a passing customer. A good way to end the year for him. » And a good sign from destiny for the couple who took over the Rottes store in October 2024, after running the Droué tobacco press for eight years.
It was at the beginning of December that the Bertin couple was informed. “But as it is a jackpot, it is not the point of sale which is responsible for monitoring the payment of the winnings which we can only ensure up to €30,000. Larger winners must contact the Française des jeux payment centers closest to the point of sale. For us Tours or Orléans which triggers the procedure for payment of winnings. But it is in Paris that the check is delivered”explain Céline and Sébastien Bertin, met on Thursday December 19 afternoon, still very happy to have their first Euromillionaire a few days before Christmas.
