Penny Bingo games
Alongside free bingo games, penny bingo games are becoming very popular among online bingo UK fans, and almost every bingo site in town has at least one of these ’so cheap it’s almost free bingo games’ bubbling away on the pot.
There’s something delightful about playing a game of online bingo and spending a penny - ahem, not that kind of penny, you know what I mean!
But seriously, how much better can it get than penny bingo? You can easily afford penny bingo games, they don’t bring a huge deficit to your online bingo budget, and you can play bingo online merrily for hours on end at a time.
Of course penny bingo games don’t tend to offer mega jackpots, however there’s one particular game coming up this Friday I believe at Wink Bingo, where tickets cost just 1p a shot, and the penny bingo game jackpot is an incredible £2,000!
Work it out for yourselves, pay 1p for a bingo card to this game and you win £2,000 - that’s a return on your investment of 200,000%!!!!!
Of course most of the wise winkers will be buying more than 1 solo bingo ticket for this cool penny bingo game, but in the end it comes down to a combination of chance and lady luck and a whole lotta bingo balls!
So don’t miss the huge penny bingo game at Wink Bingo on Friday, could make history as the best investment ever!

Winkbingo launches exclusive play off between North and South to win a Mini Cooper
People will be able to log on to Winkbingo.com at 8:30pm on Sunday 22nd February to watch the North South divide as Joanna Kane from Werneth, Oldham in Lancashire and Christine Tulley from Toot Hill, Swindon in Wiltshire battle it out for a brand new set of wheels.
Joanna, 36 and mum of two, couldn't believe her luck when she was told she was one of the two joint winners out of 8,000 players who took part in Winkbingo.com's Mini Cooper bingo game on New Year's Day. "I've never won anything in my life," gushed Joanna, "luck just doesn't happen to me, but if I play with my lucky numbers 9 and 11 on Sunday, the day I passed my driving test and my kids' birthdays, I may be proven wrong!"
Joanna originally fell in love with Winkbingo.com last October and hasn't looked back. "Winkbingo.com gives me the perfect opportunity to take a break from work, house-hold chores and the kids," says Joanna, "especially since I can play in the comfort of my own living room. Winkbingo.com's chat hosts are really friendly and their individual games are great fun too, I've even made some great new friends."
Christine Tulley, 51, mum of two and grandma of three had been playing for six months - she was often on a winning streak winning a string of small prizes which really spurred her on to keep playing, so much so that she too became an overjoyed winner out of 8,000 players, in the New Years Day Mini Cooper game. I always believed that magic could happen to me at Winkbingo.com, says Christine, "let's just hope the tarot reader who gave me my lucky numbers, 1,7, 8, 17, 35 and 44 really is for real and I may just get to win the Mini Cooper in Sunday's game!"
Christine has been a fan of online bingo ever since she began working at the local bingo hall where she remained for 15 years. "It's expensive to go to bingo halls now though" says Christine, "and why bother when you can stay at home and have even more fun playing bingo online with Winkbingo.com? It's such a fun and friendly site and really easy to use too. I feel secure with Winkbingo.com and love the fact that I can chat so much to other bingo fans too."
Whether choosing to don their heels and coats to play their favourite game in bingo halls or choosing to relax in their pyjamas and slippers to play online, up until now bingo players have been given a card full of numbers and their chance of shouting "full house" has been left entirely to lady luck.
Maurice Karpes, Marketing Director at Winkbingo.com says, "The fact that we are allowing our two lucky players to choose their own numbers and play a part in their own fate makes our exclusive Mini Cooper game so exciting. We've also created a way for friends and family to watch so that they can offer their support, we're sure other bingo fans will be interested too - may the luckiest player win!"

Win a Brand New Mini Cooper
My absolute favourite online bingo website are at it again - pipping everyone else to the post with their fantastic bingo promotions - how do they do it?
At Bingostreet we have a theory, you’re only allowed to work at Wink Bingo if you’re a fun loving bingo mad genius - I’m sure it’s pretty close to the truth. Who would have thought that you could actually win a brand new Mini Cooper just by playing the bingo games on offer at Wink Bingo!
Well it’s absolutely true! And there’s more than one way to get into the absolutely massive bingo game that’ll be playing on New Year’s Day at 7pm - where the HUGE PRIZE is the BRAND NEW MINI COOPER!
The best way is to play bingo games at Wink Bingo, as many as you can, throughout December to build up your bingo points. Not only do you get the chance to win fabulous prizes and cash jackpots along the way in their Advent Calender bingo promotion special, but you can also play their regular bingo games or instant win games such as slots, casino games or even scratchcards! And don’t forget the tons of other special bingo games including the Risk Free Frisky Friday games - free bingo games where you get your money refunded if you don’t win the jackpot!
You’ll build up your points every time you play bingo games, or the other games too, and once you’ve got 500 points you can exchange for a Free Ticket to the HUGE BINGO GAME on New Year’s Day. So play bingo like there’s no tomorrow and get as many free bingo tickets as you can for the massive bingo game on Jan 1st.
Alternatively you could take the easy way and simply pre-purchase bingo tickets for the big game. You can do this anytime from the Wink Bingo lobby. Tickets cost £10 a go, it’s a wee bit more than their regular bingo games, but on the other hand - every ticket you buy gets you another shot at the fantabulous Mini Cooper!
There’s also quite a few other ways to build up your points in December, just check the Wink Bingo website for full details. And if you do happen to be the super lucky bingo player who wins this fantastic prize, you’ll be the guest of honour on Bingostreet in January!
What a way to kick off the New Year! Play at Wink Bingo and GL!!!!!!!

Fun evening playing bingo online
Ever had one of those evenings when you’re at home, you don’t want to go out, but you’re kinda bored? Easy solution – spend the night playing bingo online and you’ll find it’s pretty cheap too!
Most online bingo sites have special games, with extra cheap tickets especially during the week, so just have a poke around your favourite bingo sites to see what kind of bingo action is on offer, and you can have a great evening of bingo fun and entertainment – and maybe even hit one of those bingo online jackpots!
Wink Bingo is one such bingo site we’d recommend, as it has tons of action on every day of the week, 24 hours non-stop bingo fun, so you can login and play bingo online at anytime. With plenty of daily, weekly and monthly jackpot games, plus a whole load of exciting Slots, casino and Instant Win games, you’ll never have a bored evening again!
Wink Bingo have regular online bingo games with pretty sizeable guaranteed bingo jackpots, starting from £1,000 up to £10,000 monthly bingo games. When the jackpots are guaranteed, this means that one lucky bingo player MUST win the jackpot in that game and will take home the full prize.
These guaranteed jackpot bingo games at Wink Bingo kick off regularly every month on specified dates:
• £10,000 guaranteed jackpot – 10th of every month at 10pm
• £5,000 guaranteed jackpot – 30th of every month at 10pm

Tickets for all these great bingo games at Wink Bingo cost just £1 a ticket, and can be pre-purchased which is great, because if you have a hot date you can just pre-buy and your tickets will be played for you automatically in your absence. Usually there is a minimum purchase of 5 tickets for these games, but the great thing about pre-purchasing your bingo tickets is that you can allocate a set bingo budget for the month, to make sure you don’t spend more than you can afford.
So, the next time you’re twiddling your thumbs of an eve not knowing what to do, get on down to Wink Bingo and liven up the night with some hot bingo action!

Wink Bingo 3K Jackpot coming up soon
Wink Bingo are holding their cool £3K guaranteed jackpot bingo game on Monday night at 10pm sharp. This game kicks off every month on the 20th, and although not as huge as the £10K guaranteed bingo jackpot on the 10th of each month, I definitely would not complain if I won £3,000 for playing my favourite online bingo games at Wink Bingo!
Three grand is a fair whack of dosh, and I’m quite sure I could even spend it in less than a day. It’s an amount that’s not too overwhelming, and if I do win the £3K jackpot at Wink Bingo this month I know how I’m going to spend it.
I’d pre-purchase my tickets for the whole month of big jackpot games at Wink Bingo, even if I only buy 5 bingo cards for each online bingo game that’s just a fiver - and the chances of winning the bingo jackpot are always there…
I’m sure that all bingo online players dream of hitting the big one, it is after all the underlying reason why we play bingo online - to win a huge pot of cash! But there’s definitely more to online bingo than the big winnings, I’m equally thrilled to win a small bingo game jackpot, even a 1 line win on bingo sends me spinning with delight!
That being said, if I do win the 3K jackpot on Monday night at Wink Bingo, I might just disappear for a few days, as I’ll probably be recovering from a huge bingo booze hangover!

Immortalise yourself for free with Wink Bingo
Wink Bingo are pulling out all the stops to promote their online bingo games to the general public in the UK, and I truly applaud these folks for the sheer originality of their bingo campaigns.
Wink Bingo are currently making pitstops all across the UK with a great freebie for members of the public – your own professional portrait! Normally you’d expect an online bingo campaign to be more relevant with respect to the game of bingo, but the only connection you’ll find between a portrait and bingo is Wink Bingo.
I’m sure this campaign will increase the bingo site’s popularity even more, as members of the public will be flocking to the Wink Bingo website to view their portraits, and also perhaps discover the delights that online bingo has to offer – at least at Wink Bingo!
Now, when are they coming to London….

Wink Bingo "highly offensive" advertisment banned
Ok, so here’s the deal, something’s really bitten my goat today. You’ve probably read in the news that the advertising agency for Wink Bingo has unintentionally landed its sponsors in hot water - their latest ad being banned by the ASA - the Advertising Standards Authority.
You might think that the advert must have been pretty racy, raunchy, offensive, aimed at minors, or something of that order to have offended the stuffy bigwigs of the ASA. But check this out - the ad shows a nurse in the maternity ward, she’s celebrating her bingo jackpot win at Wink Bingo - you can see her laptop on her trolley, and in the background is a woman giving birth. The catchphrase is: “Find the appropriate moment…”
So somebody please tell me what’s wrong with that, or am I the only one with a sense of humour here? The ASA says that it’s inappropriate (funny choice of word when you read the catchphrase) as it means that a professional health-care worker is ignoring the poor woman suffering in labor because she’s just hit the jackpot at Wink Bingo.
It’s so obviously a joke that their decision to ban this ad isn’t funny. The UK is becoming so flipping PC it’s ridiculous. The advert doesn’t show sexy young things winning the jackpot, nor does it promote Wink Bingo to underage kids (unless you count the unborn baby), nor does it use bad language, so does that mean it’s offensive?
We all know that bingo players and online bingo players alike are mostly women, though it’s becoming much more popular with the menfolk too. So here’s my question - what’s the big deal with this? I think the point of the advertisment is simply to show that anyone can win the bingo jackpots at Wink Bingo at anytime. Simple as that. And I for one do not find that offensive in any way!
