This week a reminder that it's not just playing bingo that can win it big for you. With side games such as slots and scratchies offering increasing jackpots and prizes across the board, you too could be as lucky as the unnamed Gala Bingo player who won a huge £67k for a 25p stake this week!
Seriously, what can 25p get you these days?
While the player is overwhelmed with her win having thought she had won £400, Gala are as happy as she is as Lesley Hall PR Manager for Gala stated, "We're absolutely thrilled for her - especially as it came from just a 25p stake! We really hope she enjoys treating her family and are delighted she's now able to undertake her home improvements".
A side order of cash
The game in question was the fantastic Galaxy Bingo scratch card. Popular side games such as these that can take even the most canny bingo players by surprise in terms of their payouts. While it's true that there are many sites available which only offer slots and scratchies, such as the Hideout approved Crown Slots and Hopa.com, we think it's always worth playing side games on site if you're a regular bingo player. It's important to remember this since many sites offer regular cashback promos on side games and you can only improve your bonus status by staying loyal to one site.
Where the big names like to be seen
The more players give the side games a spin on site also means the site in question will invest in bigger name games. Big name sites such as Gala for example now offer games such as their all new X Factor scratchie where you could win £50,000 and the Hole in the Wall super scratchie.
Keeping all your interests in one place
As if having top bingo games and a side suite to make other's eyes as green as those in their Irish Eyes game, there's also the Gala Lotto game to play on. All you have to do is get six balls from forty nine and choose which of the National Lotteries you wish to place your bet on from the drop down menu. Keeping all your gaming expenses in one place, you can keep an eye on how much you are spending on gaming a week and you can also see the odds of winning on screen. You can also choose to bet with a stake as little as 10p which is not possible from a lottery machine outside of the site!
