British couple scoop £41m on EuroMillions: what could they do with the money? Residential property prices are considerably cheaper in Mansfield than they are further south, which would allow the lottery winners to buy up a reasonable chunk of their home town. With the average price of a home around £105,600, the couple could afford to splash out on an empire of 384 properties with their windfall. Manfield was once home to a Barr's Irn Bru factory, until it closed a few years ago. Short of buying the site of the old plant, which is reportedly up for sale, the lottery winners could afford to buy 27, 333,333 bottles of the fizzy drink. The town's football club made a record signing for a player in 1997 when it paid £150,000 for Lee Peacock. With that kind of budget per player, the couple could afford 270 players - the equivalent of 24 teams. Once a thriving colliery town, should the couple wish to honour that tradition, the could afford to buy 135,424 tonnes of coal with their winnings. Mansfield is home to Olympic Gold medallist swimmer Rebecca Adlington. The lottery winners could afford to buy up all the seats in the arena several times over, hypothetically, but if confining themselves to the best tickets available, their £40,627, 241 would allow them 90,282 places at the London 2012 games.
