hello all does anyone still used bookmaker football betting coupons  only asking because 

been watching people on me 1/2 hour break in a betting shop the people you meet is incredible all have different way to try to make money from betting

there people just come to play machine there people play on cartoon racing and cartoon cricket sorry virtual racing incredible to me but hey ho

had me eye on one gentlemen he comes in and pick up every coupon and take two of each every week just got talking to him as you do and found out he goes

to two more bookmakers and does the same every week for the last  ten years pre covid anyway 

got to know one cashier in the bookmaker its a wonder what pastry and sweets open doors for you as this cashier will give you a cup of coffee or tea when you 

treat all the people as you want yourself to be treated  well got  talking to this  cashier and he let slip this gentlemen wins regularly not big amount but enough to  not be highlight

£25 to £100  a week when football season is on so he seem to win on the coupon does anybody still do this

No would be the short answer, as I hardly ever venture into a shop these days. It was certainly my way into betting on football though, doing a few trebles or fivefolds every Saturday and enjoying a degree of beginners luck. I eventually found my way to the goalscorer coupons which became the big communal Saturday bet for me and a couple of my mates (pick 3 or 4 players in a perm of some sort then follow the scores and scorers).

Back then it would have been a case of doing the rounds of the shops to harvest the coupons for that weekend as there was no internet and teletext was a painfully slow process! All added to the excitement and anticipation I suppose.

Years ago there was the advantage that coupon prices tended to be held even when the price had shortened if you were betting over the phone or in the early days of online. These days I think they're happy to trim the price from what might be on the coupon so that particular edge has mostly gone.

Generally I'd say anyone who can win doing that could probably win putting the bets on online, maybe they just prefer doing it "old style" or maybe there are some in shop bonuses or offers that make it worth the effort.

He possibly gets the coupons from all of the bookmakers ... and then puts various bets on whichever coupon has the best return. That way he will get the best odds/value in the shops (multiples).
