Is it just me or are these spinner promotions just a big waste. Do they think we are idiots? Has anyone won anything meaningful with these stupid gimmicks?

It's like a lottery.

Every (hundreds of) thousands of times someone wins something decent, the rest is just nothing 🫢

I have finished top 3 in winner spinner competition, so it’s something. Same type of freeroll win in 888 every time however. You cannot really knock free stuff anyway. Yes if you are big roller than I believe you are given better chances of hitting bigger prizes, so fair in the end if you invest more on any particular site.

I think it depends on the rake you're making... I got cash prizes several times from these wheels and I think it was related to hard grinding :D Maybe I got lucky and that's all - who knows...

I only play on PS. Months went by and I didn't get anything. But in the last 25 days I got $5 twice on roulette.

At 888, I regularly get something interesting, mostly freeroll tickets and casino free spins, money is rare

Money is not given away for free. Such promotions are long gone.
Which is a little absurd considering how much money these sites take in and their cash overflow must be insane. Doesn't take 20 million a month to run and update their apps and sites. Long time users should get more benefits, might keep us loyal to them. I see a lot of worthy freerolls are gone also. A lot of what these sites are starting to just waste my time; and time is getting more important to me.
