£40,000 Per Week!

Post by Fruiter »

I've just found out from an insider that my local service station makes an anerage of 40k PW just from the fruit machine section!

They have around 20 £25 awp's and 5x s16's connected, including Rainbow ritches, Elvis, Cashino and a couple of others...

Apparently since they got them earlier this year not a day as gone by when at least one JP hasn't come from the S16's!

I just had to share that with you guys, I'm Amazed :shock:

What service station is this?

They must have some very powerful machines in there to take that amount, and the throughput of people there must be huge!

What machines do they have there then, besides the Sec 16s?

I have been to those Oxford services owned by Welcome Break next to the M40.

Loads of new machines there including Bling Bling, PTPT, Jackpot Gems, Monopoly 3PL, RR ELVIS TOP 20 CASHINO, Monkey Business etc.

I have posted something similar to this in another thread. When i went to the Oxford one on Saturday 5th August even at 11am it was packed although only me playing RR and Monopoly. :D

Time for you to leave those S16s alone then :D

That's a crazy amount of money, are service stations really that popular?

I used to go regularly instead of the local arcade, the machines seemed to pay out better :roll:

I haven't been since they got the new machines, i was told by someone who knows the manager there, but when i used to go it'd be like 2/3am and there was always a few in at that time!

Its the one between Junction 26-27 M6, I think it's called Charnock Richard, And yeah it's a welcome break...

I would have expected that much profit in the cafe charging £2.49 for a brew but i'm amazed at the machines!

All the machines are always upto date, they used to change them all every 6 months or so!
