The National Lottery has urged any players who bought or received scratchcards at Christmas to double-check them as the claim deadline approaches.
Players have 90 days from the end date of the games to claim their prizes, meaning there are just 28 days left to claim winnings.
The final day for Christmas winnings to be claimed is April 3rd.
A spokesperson for the National Lottery said: "The deadline to claim is 3rd April, so don’t miss out! For prizes above €15,000, players should contact our prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie to arrange collection at Lotto HQ."
The Christmas Bonus Draw, worth €5,000, is also still up for grabs.
To check if you're in luck with this one, scan the QR code on the scratch card or manually enter the access on Christmasbonus.lottery.ie.
There have also been two winners in the Euromillions.
A player in New Ross, Co.Wexford scooped €500,000 in Friday's draw and a Cork player won €213,502 in today's main draw, with the ticket purchased at Texaco Service Station on Model Farm Road.
Friday's winning numbers were 15, 23, 26, 29 and 48, while the numbers for the winner in Cork were 1, 3, 11, 20, 43 and the two Lucky Stars were 2 and 11.
A Lotto spokesperson said: "We’re over the moon to see two big wins from Wexford and Cork emerge from last night’s EuroMillions draw.
"It’s moments like these that remind us all of the excitement and possibility the games bring.
"So, to all our players, check your tickets very carefully – who knows, it could be you!"
