Hi,
I was a Bingo Hall Manager for over 10 years. Theoretically you could make money from only ever playing free sessions - but there are so many distractions available to spend on that you'd have to be very strict with yourself in order to come out on top. Even on "Free sessions" our average SPH (spend per head) was still £15 to £20. Basically free sessions were used as a loss leader as we knew we'd take more money via the Bar, Diner Cash Bingo (boards) and the Fruit Machines.0 -
Like any form of gambling, you will ulitmately need to win to turn a profit. I am truly sorry if cheap food and warmth is a decisive factor (what is this country comig to ?)0
