Grandmother Scoops £28,000 at Gala Bingo
A Lancashire woman who only very recently began playing online bingo has just scooped a massive jackpot of £28,000. 44 year old grandmother, Janet Peet has literally only been a member of a UK Bingo site for 4 weeks when she scooped the big money prize.
Jane is the manager of a bookies so she knows all about betting, and she was already a big fan of the offline bingo hall when she started playing bingo online at Gala Bingo. Working late evenings and early mornings meant Janet wanted to spend more time at home, so she gave up the trip to the local club in favour of logging on and buying her cards on her PC.
When she found out she'd won the cash climber prize Janet was of course ecstatic. She took home the £28,000 after winning a bingo game in under 32 calls, though at first she thought she'd only won the normal £100 jackpot!
"I couldn't believe it at first. I was upstairs and when I realised I started screaming. It was mayhem and panic. I still don't think it has sunk in yet. It's the biggest thing I've ever won," said Janet.
It's amazing what you can when you play bingo online.. Janet has decided to spend the money on a big LCD Television and a nice relaxing break in the Maldives.
