Speaking of not costing a single penny, have a go at the free bingo at this site too. Free bingo games take place at 1.30pm, 4.30pm and 10.30pm every day. These games are the ideal solution to boost your bingo balance if you are not up to making a deposit to play in the big money games. Join in the fun in the Velvet Lounge and take home prizes of £2, £3 and £10 in cash.
Join the winners at Betfred Bingo “dany”, “coxx14”, “iammo” and “silje23” each won £1000 in the Crown Jewel, “Fudge24” won £2000 in the Barmy Bonanza and these are just a few of the big winners. Who knows, you could be the next to see your name up in lights, and the Barmy Big one just got bigger.
All members of Bingo on the Box are winners from day one; they offer an exclusive super generous free bingo fiver so you can try a few games without having to risk your own money, and once you have decided to join the site a 100% sign up bonus is all yours. This is a cash match offer and it is valid up to a maximum amount of £100, so whatever deposit you make is matched pound for pound up to this amount. Thereafter a 25% bonus is given to all players when they make a redeposit, unless one of their super specials is running and this bonus is increased.
The bingo on this site is so much fun and your free fiver will get you chatting and plying as well as seeing what they have to offer. Bingo on the Box offers more than one way to play online bingo. They have also just finished with their Christmas countdown special so things are unwinding at this site, but the Christmas give away still runs till the 31st December so you can still take advantage of this.
What did you get up to on your Christmas day after all the weeks of shopping decorating and wrapping eating, drinking and giving? Most people usually have a chilled day at home with the family, we did. You may have even played online bingo, we did and you can still play at this site and earn pounds worth of BB’z for all the games you play in, both 90 ball and 75 ball bingo! Check the games schedule for details of when this promotion plays with what games and get three extra chances to win in both versions of the game. While you are there, don’t forget to check what’s going on in the New Year at Bingo on the Box too.
When was the last time you received a letter, Christmas card or special offer through the post? I’ll bet you hardly ever receive this any longer, I know I don’t, everything is sent by email these days. Sky Bingo has bucked this new method of sending post and reverted to the old tradition of sending post in the old tradition, so if you receive a Christmas Card from Sky Bingo make sure you open it because it is worth a fiver to you.
That’s right they have sent out lots of these Christmas Cards to their members and each of them have a bonus code which needs to be used to claim your free fiver. I think that is a nice little seasonal treat, every bit of free bingo money you can get is great for the budget and allows you to play quite a few games. Ticket prices at Sky Bingo start as low as 1p, and in the cheap games that is 500 bingo tickets. Also, remember at the beginning of the new month they offer a massive £20 000 linx games where tickets prices are only 2p each.
Once you have loaded this free bingo money into your account it will appear as bonus funds which means it is non-withdrawable. You also have to spend a fiver before the bonus is activated and it is valid till the 30th December so make sure you load yours into your account before then and spend it.
While we are talking about bonus funds at Sky Bingo, I just want to remind you that you can also play free bingo games which offer real cash prizes. There are four one hour sessions throughout the course of every day, so make sure you get your share of the free money they are giving away, it will stretch your bingo budget even further.
Boy has Virgin Bingo got a massive bingo linx game lined up for you to end the old year with. This whopper takes place on the 27th December, just in time to make sure you have all your family Christmas obligations over and done with, and in time to really celebrate the New Year if you win.
The though of starting the new decade with and extra few thousand in my pocket, or my bank account for that matter, does strange things to me. Tickets into a game with a guaranteed prize of £20 000 cost only 50p each (it gets better all the time) and the game is played at 10:30pm in the Necker Island and Marrakesh rooms. You are more than likely able to pre-purchase these tickets, you generally can with linx guaranteed games, but I have to be honest I didn’t check, so I would suggest you check for yourself. All the 90 ball rooms link up to participate in the game and this is what makes it so easy for them to offer such huge prize money.
As it is a 90 ball bingo game there are three prizes of one line £2 000, two lines £4 000 and the full house of £14 000. All of them very worthwhile and where do you win a one line prize of £2 000 for 50p per ticket? You can purchase a maximum buy in of 36 tickets, and I have just notices, you can actually pre-buy. A 36 ticket maximum buy in makes this game fair and affordable for everyone, but remember you only need one ticket to win. Bingo is one of the most random number games of all and if luck is on your side you have it made. If you want to play some free bingo to boost your account balance for buying these tickets, there is always plenty available at the site, or you could even trade some of your V*Points for pounds.
“2010” it has such a nice ring to it, it is a lovely well rounded number and if “10” is your lucky number you have to play at Bet 365 Bingo.

This promo has a Fiat 500 up for grabs as well as 299 runners up prizes. You only have till the 25th December to collect points and that is less than a week, so I don’t fancy your chances of winning the car if you start now. Unless you play bingo day and night till the competition ends, but you might still be in with a chance to win one of the many runner up prizes. However if you are the type who fancies a challenge and you join the site today, who knows, anything is possible?

It is a well known fact that drinking tea and playing bingo are two of the UK’s most popular cultural activities, and there is only one thing that is better than tea and biscuits, it is Tea and Bingo. A brand new site, that I believe holds huge player attraction and looks set to take the UK market by storm. Owned by Digital Prophets, this site is going to be running an ad campaign after the Christmas rush is over, but if you want to take a look get over to this site right now, it offers a charmingly interactive experience.
You would be remiss not to pay a visit to the Old Curiosi-tea Shop where Madam T (Tracy) Bags presides over the tea caddies. She will read your tea leaves, so choose your cup and select your poison, she will brew it for you and read the leaves. She sees many interesting events in my future and apparently my luck bingo number today is 50. Pay her a visit she is delightful!
Getting back to the bingo at this site, now we have dealt with the tea, they have everything you could possibly want in an online bingo site. Bargain games, free bingo for real cash prizes, super jackpot games and great sign-on bonuses. Of course it is still early days, but if I may be so presumptuous, and Madam T Bags, doesn’t get offended, I would like to predict that there will be a whole lot more up for grabs very soon.
Mecca bingo is the second largest bingo operation in the UK, they have continually maintained that higher rates of taxation for this industry have been one of the major causes of shrinking revenues, and despite the pre-budget report from Alistair Darling regarding a tax cut of 2%, they still maintain this standpoint.
According to Mecca Bingo the revenues bingo clubs attract shrink by one fifth year on year. So this small pleasure, along with having a drink at the local is becoming a thing of the past for many average Britons. It is indicative that the government regards it as just another social vice, but human beings are social beings, and making their social outlets more inaccessible does not bode well for the mental health of society and this has been proven by research.
According to the Wall Street Journal this budget has been good for bingo and boilers but not much else. But how good is it really going to be for bingo, only remains to be seen.
In the meantime online bingo is not subject to the same taxation as these sites keep their operations offshore to keep taxation at a reasonable level. One can’t help thinking that if the government were more relaxed about taxation, they would attract more income into the Customs and Excise coffers. Just think; 300 bingo sites turning over millions in revenue have got to be good for the economy.
The bingo sector has argued for years that unfair penalization through taxation will contribute substantially to the demise of this industry. The recent announcement in the tax cut saw Mecca Bingo shares increasing by just over one percent. However this is only a partial victory as other gambling activities are only subject to 15% taxation, why the difference, I have no idea, do you?
Christmas time brings out the best in us, it is all about the spirit of giving and receiving, and although it is the thought that counts, Gala Bingo has revealed some gift giving facts that are quite interesting. I don’t believe this is in an attempt to be peevish, it’s more to have a bit of a laugh. 2000 people were polled to come up with these results, and questions asked appear to have hinged on the “worst” gifts ever received. Have a sense of humour; it’s not about pointing a finger.
Some of the people polled revealed they have been given horrible gifts and consider kitchen equipment and utensils to be a bad gift. Oh shit, I just bought my mum a wok and Chinese fryer, but it is what she wanted! Another bad gift apparently is a nose hair trimmer; I don’t think its such a bad gift, particularly if you have bad nose hairs!
Aunts are apparently really bad at buying gifts according to Gala Bingo and here I have to agree. Last Xmas my granddaughter was only one and her great aunt bought her a teddy that looks like it belongs in a Chucky horror film. It also has a maniacal giggle and red eyes which flash insanely while it shrieks away. Needless to say the toy was never given to the child for fear of terrorizing her, but my son-in-law loves to terrorize his friends with it, so has been put to some good use.
Speaking of horrible gifts I too have had my fair share and my husband once bought me a white porcelain spaniel for Christmas. Why I have no idea, I have never professed a liking for ornaments or spaniels, and I can only hazard a guess but this was probably a turning point in our married lives. I finally realized he knew absolutely nothing about me and this is probably why he is now my ex-husband. In the meantime, you won’t get any horrible gifts if you play online at Gala Bingo, so get over to the site and see what fantastic surprises they have up their sleeves for you this festive season.
