Someone out there is €10,000 richer and doesn’t know it yet – as a local business won €10k in cash for one lucky customer.

This week, Daly’s SuperValu on Park Road, who sold an RTE ONE Telly Bingo ticket before June 11, received a call asking them to take part on the popular ‘Phone Risk’ game as the Lotto couldn’t make contact with the ticket holder.

Denis Tucker, Duty Manager with the store, stepped into the breech on Tuesday and managed to scoop a €10k cash prize for the lucky punter.

However, now the store and the National Lottery are calling for the winner to come forward - saying they have just 90 days to claim their prize.

“Lotto contacted us on Friday,” Denis explained to the Killarney Advertiser.

“The customer who bought the Telly Bingo ticket was picked out to play the phone game but Lotto couldn’t contact them and asked us to play on their behalf.”

However, Denis, unsure which colour balls to choose in the game, sought the advice of staff member Áine Griffin who is a dab hand at the TV game.

“For the rehearsal I asked Áine what I should go for and she said pick them in the order of white, black and black.”

And for the real game on TV, Áine advised him to play in the same order.

“She was right!,” he said. “With Phone Risk you’re guaranteed €1k but if you get the three right – it’s €10k.”

The lucky winner has until Friday, September 4 to claim their prize. If you think you have the winning ticket you can claim your prize by calling the Claims Team on 01 83636 44.

A highly unusual baby reflexology class is currently underway at the Killarney Sports & Leisure Centre, featuring four sets of twins.

The four-week course, which commenced this week marks a rare occasion for the town as it is the first baby reflexology class in eight years to be made up entirely of twins.

Run by Una O’Donoghue of Reflexology Killarney, the weekly sessions are designed to provide a relaxed, social environment where new parents can connect with one another. Throughout the course, local mothers learn gentle reflexology techniques aimed at promoting bonding and supporting infants experiencing common issues like digestion difficulties and disrupted sleep.
Among those taking part in the unique July sessions are mothers Áine Cahill with her twins Páidí and Éabha, Tracey Cremin with her twins April and Noah, Miranda O’Shea with her twins Nora and Hailey, and Eileen Cooper with her twins Caoimhe and Odhran. The classes will continue at the Killarney Sports & Leisure Centre through mid-July.
