The punter scooped the €4.4m prize with the National Lottery draw on January 13 and kept the ticket in his glove box for four-and-a-half weeks. The Donegal Lotto player said: “I keep all my Lotto tickets in the glove box. Once I found out I won I stored the ticket in the glove box of the car during the day while I was at work. I took today off to collect the cheque in Dublin and I'm back to work first thing in the morning."
