If you’re a member of Wink Bingo, Tasty Bingo or any of the other many online bingo sites you will find that they’re mini social networks with the added bonus of great games of bingo and great prizes to be won.

One of my guilty passtimes is playing online scratch cards and scratch off tickets like you can find at www.Free-ScratchCards.co.uk

I also like to get one every now and then when I’m out at the shops. I usually get harrangued into buying one by my 4 year old son who loves the cards with colourful pigs or bees on them. I’m not sure what his strategy is but I just know he’s a lucky little lad and 90% of the time the card he picks wins. It might only be £2 or so but a win is a win and I make my money back.

I’ve always thanked my stars that those expensive scratch cards that you can buy for £5 don’t have flying pigs on them or anything remotely enticing for a 4 year old. They usually have a treasure chest or a picture of Noel Edmonds on.

However I now find an interesting article written by a shop keeper about developing a scratch card strategy which of course you can trancend when playing online:

I could be a millionaire now if I’d read this earlier.

I’m sure William Golding will be rolling in his grave at this deliberate attempt at spoofing the scenario of his classic novel just so I can paint an image of a tranquil cove on a tropical island where you’re free to play bingo free as much as you want.

Why though? Can you play bingo free on a tropical island? In a few weeks you will be able to do pretty much that at new online bingo site Bingo Cove.

Running on the Dragonfish platform Bingo Cove will entertain you in spades as the sea laps at your feet and dusky maidens bring you Malibu and Coke.

Okay enough of the picture painting, what is Bingo Cove offering?

I have heard  that Bingo Cove will be celebrating their launch with a superb prize. A seven night cruise of a lifetime for two including flights and transfers to Miami and a private A-class cabin aboard the Carnival Cruise Line’s good ship Liberty. WOW!

New bingo players to Bingo Cove will be awarded 20 free bingo cards and a 100% deposit bonus if you deposit up to £100. In addition to this you will also get 50% deposit matches on all subsequent deposits.

There is also a £1,000,000 coverall jackpot three times each week which is probably enough money to buy Cuba if you wanted your own tropical paradise.

Bingo Cove will also be chock full of great prizes like holiday vouchers and widescreen TVs and you can play for these every Thursday in the pre-buy games.

There’s also rumours they’re are going to pick three players each month and pay their gas and electric bills.

Be sure we will be watching Bingo Cove like a rash and as soon as it goes live we will let you know and we will wangle some great exclusive discount codes for PlayBingoOnlineFree.co.uk readers.

I know what you’re thinking. A song? But you’re a bingo review site… what could you sing about?

I wouldn’t actually call it singing – it’ll be more pedestrian rapping.

We’ve got some friends in the music biz, they’re producers, and we were having a drink together and all thought it would be a nice idea to release a tune for you to enjoy.

We’re not sure about anything else at the moment, we’ve had a few ideas but that’s all. We’re going to book some studio time in London in the next few weeks and hopefully weave some magic. If anything it’ll be a laugh – expensive, but a laugh.

I’ll keep you posted. In the meantime, getting daubing and enjoy the bingo and your 250% first time bonus with the likes of Costa Bingo or where most people are winning currently at Tombola Bingo.

Now I’ve worked in many different jobs in my time wearing many different hats. I worked in commercial radio for 10 years until recently and of course have many friends in radio advertising sales. I also had a stint for a few years running my own computer repair business.

What has this got to do with the opening quotation? Well I learned very quickly when running and advertising my own business and also from listener take up on radio station adverts and features that you can’t just throw something out there once, hope it sticks and everyone comes flocking.

It takes about six weeks for people to respond to adverts and anything being sold to them. If I took out an advert for one week in the local paper and after that one try said, “I tried it and I didn’t win any new business” then I would look pretty silly wouldn’t I?

So next time you think that trying online bingo once or twice and not winning anything is how the game works – stop and think again. Try to enjoy the game, give it a chance and don’t play to win all the time. Enjoy the journey and take the scenic route every now and then.

Oh and before I forget, congratualtions to joanxx who won £25,000 yesterday playing Bingo90 with Tombola Bingo. If you think people don’t win just check out the Tombola site and have a look at their recent winners page. It’s updated constantly during the day.

Good luck and have a great day
