I blame the child he was probably egging her on...

“I phoned the manager, I asked when would this be getting resolved.
“He said, ‘How did you get my number?’'
Is my favourite bit. |  |

It is a good feeling when you win on a grabber.
I won one of those Dumbos at Felixstowe the other month, only put a quid in!  |  |

They had one in The Kingfisher a while back.
Got a decent pair of trainers out of it. | |

Oh my goodness.
Though on a more sombre note, she does have the vote. |  |

She's just obviously not very good at the claw machine. Needs about a grand's worth of practice.
Edit: I just got to the end of the article. That holiday park is, in fact, owned by... my uncle. Keep those £100 notes comin'! [Post edited 2 Jul 2019 10:22]

Needed a good laugh today, and that has hit the spot!
Blimey, she needs to get a life! I would not spend all that to win a toy - she could have got one online and paid the postage 5 times over for that!
I must say I DO go on machines like this on our twice yearly outings to seaside places but limit myself to £10 for the amusements. Mind you, I normally have sod all money left after blowing most of it on vinyl in charity shops :D |  | | |

I like this bit from the Playnation spokesperson...
"protecting children and other vulnerable adults"
What they mean, surely, is 'stupid people' isn't it? |  |

Indeed. So she spent the best part of 50 quid winning a teddy and despite seeing the worker adjust the settings again decided to throw another 50 quid at it because one teddy isn't enough for her child.
She's amazing! | |

You mean...
"...because one teddy isn't enough for her child that may or may not even want one, and is too young to care either way." | |

While the story is amusing and this particular individual at best is rather challenged in the common sense department, it does raise a legitimate question. My eldest loves playing these and I'm sure most of us at some point or other have observed how it is physically impossible for the grabber to transport the toy in most of these machines. Hardly seems fair does it? Surely there should be some kind of fixed odds on winning?
I always make her put 20p in for a single go and see how grabby the grabber is/heavy the toys are first. Only stick a quid in if it looks remotely possible. |  |
