It may be just days since people were being asked for a "penny for the guy" - but the same price could now buy them into some online bingo action, explains Jackpotjoy Bingo.
As the working week passes the midway point, the UK bingo site has games for a penny scheduled for between 19:00 GMT and midnight.
However, the most frugal members are told that they will have to wait for every third game to come along in order to buy in at the promotional price of a penny.
With jackpots said to reach three figures regularly over the course of the evening, though, the return on investment for winners could be substantial.
Jackpotjoy Bingo comments: "You can't even buy a penny sweet for a penny these days but you can get a game of bingo with Jackpotjoy!"
Meanwhile, players at the site between November 12th and 19th are given the chance to earn a guaranteed payout.
Anyone who wagers £10 per day for four days is to be given £5 back, with the reward boosted to £10 for those who wager the sum for a fifth day.
