Advantages: Good fun

Disadvantages: Can become very addictive

There is only one winner when it comes to the fruit machines and that is the person with the key to it.
I know it but still cannot resist a flutter once in a while.
It’s the flashing lights and the music that lures me. I rummage through my purse for a few pound coins, and the pleasure I get if I win a couple of quid straight off is something else but of course that does not happen very often.

I never walk away when I have made a small profit. I keep pushing another pound coin in the slot just in case those bells hold or I get another number to go onto the feature run.
Why do I waste my money? I never walk away with a pile of cash, any win is always put straight back in.

It is simple; I find a few bob on a fruit machine very relaxing. I can forget about work and family problems for a short while and just concentrate on the reels and all the hidden features.
So what if I don’t come away with a win, I can have half an hour’s pleasure for a few quid once in a while.
How many pints of beer can you buy for that? Not many, and a packet of cigarettes cost just about the same.
I think I prefer a fruit machine as a vice to the drinking and smoking habits.

I must say one thing though before I end.
Fruit machines can be addictive, so much so that I have seen people ploughing pounds into them. The next press of the button might just be the one to drop the jackpot. A pretty desperate situation to get into and this is when fruit machines can cause problems.

I would never play if I could not afford to loose the money, it is after all a gamble but used for pleasure once in a while can be great fun.
