..... still have to keep paying the mortgage. 
Better luck next time, didn't even get my money back either. ohh well..

I heard the lucky ones who purchased a decimo came from Santiponce (Sevilla), Salobrena (Granada), Lepe (Huelva), and other areas north. A decimo, I believe, of the lucky ticket number is valued at 300,000 euros?
