A 43-year-old woman found Sunday night to be a lucky night to play bingo as she scooped a £187,000 bingo cash prize, reports National Bingo.
The winner, who was taking part in a bingo game play session for the first time on a Sunday evening, was only doing so because her husband was watching the football and her nine-year-old son was at a cub camp.
The woman from Cusworth won at the Gala Club in Doncaster, a club that she admits to joining four years ago only because she needed to use its toilet.
She also told National Bingo that her husband was already happy that Doncaster had beaten Leeds and they both woke up at 02:30 BST the following morning and couldn't get back to sleep.
The winnings will pay for a new kitchen they have just had finished and a holiday could be on the horizon.
With the ongoing financial demands brought on by the credit crunch, many bingo winners are putting their money to good use around the home.
Earlier this month a courier paid off his whole mortgage after winning £410,000 playing bingo.
