A BIG win of £3 £3,056!

I got t to spoil m my kid kids and grandkids…

Working long hours in a bar – there’s nothing that I like more than coming home and putting my feet up and sometimes I play a few games of bingo.

Gary, 52, and I have enjoyed playing bingo over the years.

We used to have time to visit the bingo halls but, these days, with our grandchildren and busy jobs, it’s a real rarity.

Now we play Chat Mag Bingo and love that we can play from the comfort of our home.

The site has lots of games – bingo as well as slots, and you can play on your mobile.

Flicking the switch on the kettle, turning the telly on and loading up the laptop – we’re good to go!

The 11 August last year was just like any other evening.

I’d got back at about 6pm from work and Gary had dinner in the oven already.

There was a Link game in Emerald – the 90-ball bingo room from 6.30pm – so I logged on and bought some tickets.

A link game is a special bingo game where different rooms play together for the chance to win a bigger Full House.

Watching as my numbers come through – I sat and waited…

As my last number was called, I called out to Gary.

‘Look! Look! I’ve won the £1,000 jackpot!’ I shrieked. ‘No way!’ Gary yelled back. ‘Yes, way!’ I responded. Delighted, he stood up and threw his arms around me.

It was perfect timing as Gary’s son from a previous relationship was about to have an engagement party.

Calling him right there and then, we said we’d pay for the DJ. He was thrilled! Then, last 7 October, it was a Saturday and we’d enjoyed a rare trip to the bingo hall as we’d both had the day off.

Visiting the grandkids is a top priority on the weekend so we’d ticked that off, too.

As the evening drew in, we both settled down for a few bingo games. As we’d been to the bingo hall, I didn’t want to spend too much online.

But that’s one of the wonderful things about Chat Mag Bingo – you can set yourself a deposit and spend limit.

I spent £1.20 on 1p tickets for the Tiki room – what a bargain!

Then I was watching as the numbers were being dabbed off.

Sitting back in my chair, I started watching the ball calls.

Suddenly I only needed two and then one number…

Just hang on a second,

I thought.

But those are all my umbers!

Staring at the screen, I could hardly believe

I waited… Then as my last number was called, I shrieked!

what I was actually seeing!

I’d won just over £11 on two lines and £39 on the Full House.

But when the word Winner popped up, I saw I’d also won the £3,056 progressive jackpot.

‘Gary, I’ve just won the big jackpot!’ I squealed, jumping up and down for joy. ‘Again?’ he asked, stunned. Double-checking the screen, it really did feel like a dream. I’d won £3,106 in total! And just a couple of months before Christmas, too, it really was perfect timing.

I bought the grandchildren some new toys and clothes and made sure that we had everything we wanted to treat ourselves over the holiday.

Being able to spoil our children and grandchildren has definitely been the best part of my wins.

Both my two wins were truly unforgettable moments.

So, thank you very much Chat Mag Bingo!
