It seems the credit crunch is Aldi’s friend

Well, the credit crunch has hit our pockets, but increased Aldi’s profits it seems. Word is they are making more than ever from their cut price goods, and we the consumer are lookng to them for the bargains.
Now I’ve never been to an Aldi, don’t even know if there is one near me, I’ll have to look when I web surf and play Bingo at the same time, (some people can multi-task!).

They may be worth looking into, despite the fact that I LOVE 50p specials at Tesco’s. Mabe Aldi has 49p specials?

Bingo websites that make you money…

Have you seen how many bingo websites have cropped up in the last few weeks?

I’ve been looking at a few, and they all seem to say much the same thing, and sell many of the same online Bingo rooms. So I asked a friend who knows the bingo industry what the deal was.
Well, it seems that people can become affiliates to a bingo room, and then they people that they introduce to these bingo rooms, earn that person money. Wow, that sounds like a great deal if you know a lot of people who love bingo like me hey?

So, how does it work? Well, it seems that when you go to a Bingo room via that site, they get ‘linked’ to you, and they get paid a little bit for your joining the bingo room and playing online.

If you want to learn more about how to actually build an affiliate website, look here. Maybe you could build a bingo one and send all your friends here and have fun together playing whilst you make money? Wow, the best of both worlds!

Say good bye to the sweet old cheque

Remember that way of paying? Writing out a cheque and passing over a piece of paper to the lady at the till, who put it into the cash register, and says ‘thank you’ even though you’d not even given her ‘proper’ money? Well, those good days are about to be gone. I never felt like I was really handing over money when I handed over a cheque, it felt more like playing at buying, but it worked every time.

Apparently, cheques are being phased out because only 5% of payments are made by cheques these days. Such a shame, my granny would be horrified. She once proudly gave me a cheque for my 24th birthday – all £2 of it- and it would have cost me half of it to bank it, so I put it away safely as a memento. Sweet thing she was.

So, I may have written my last cheque! I’ll have to recycle the other book I have lying in the drawer then.

Mind you, not that mind too much, the cards fit in my wallet better, and I fund my Bingo account online, so no cheque needed there. I get paid my Bingo winning into my Bingo account as well, and I can then draw that bingo money out, or I could ask for a cheque I guess, but then I’d have to go bank it, so having Bingo funds go directly into my debit card is much easier. I guess that there is a good reason for us all going plastic.

Goodbye cheques, thanks for the fun while it lasted!
