Doing The Lotto Is About To Become More Expensive

Lotto players are about to be hit with an increase very soon.

The price of Lotto plus will increase by one euro in September with the prize fund set to go up from half a million to a million euro - which makes the increase slightly more bearable.

According to 98fm, it's the second rise in the price of National Lottery tickets since it was brought to Ireland by Canadian operator, Premier Lotteries Ireland in 2015.

The increase will kick in from the first of September.
