A lucky mum of four has just mopped up a huge national game jackpot bingo win to the tune of £69,000! Gala Bingo in Charles Cross proved to be very lucky for the 38 year old lady and her daughter, as she will be sharing her big bingo win with her as she was with her on the night!

It has been reported by the national gaming body that the lady was left shocked and very shaky after she found out just how much she had won. This has been the case for many a big bingo winner, because although all players that play bingo, hope that one day it will be them to hit it big, when it does actually happen, it can take a while for it to sink in and realize that yes it was “you” that has just won that huge cash sum of money, your mind can then start to whirl with what you are able to do in your life now, thanks to winning it big on bingo.

The lucky lady has been a member of her local Gala Bingo club for more than 12 years and she often plays bingo their at least a couple of times a week with her daughter. Her biggest previous win to date, was a couple of years ago when she won a £2,000 jackpot prize, on Mother’s Day no less and her daughter also seems quite lucky to as she won a £1,000 house, just a couple of months previous.

This is what the shocked lady, told the national gaming body, after her jackpot bingo win: “I wasn’t quite sure what was going on at first but my daughter told me how much I had won,” she said. “I’ve just started to learn to drive so I can now buy myself a car.” She also stated, that she intends to pay off some bills and buy some new furniture for her home.

It was calling house in 43 numbers that won the mother and daughter just over £69,000 and this is how their winnings were made up as the mum will be sharing her bingo prize equally with her daughter – First she won the national bingo games jackpot prize of £65,720, she also took away the regional prize of £3,348, plus Gala Bingo own in house prize of a very nice £150 and this gave them total winnings of £69,218 for a night out at their local Gala Bingo Hall.
