2 for me. In the days of 2p machine there was a joker syle machine with cards along the top for the gamble. With nudges instead of going for the hold on 2 the same for the spin, if you nudged in 3 different, i.e. 1 joker on the line and then one above, it would hold and then repeat the nudges next spin. So eventually it would drop the other joker on the line after about 5 spins and you would take the £1 jackpot. 30p into the machine would guarantee about £9 out, or so until it went empty.

Also, recently there was an astra computer screen multiplayer that seemed to resest to 50p stake with a random hold afterwards after exiting the game and re-entering. It was obvious to play on 10p and then come back in to take the feature or £25 jackpot. Only found 2 units unfortunately.......

I suppose these are emptys really, but I've never gone out to find them with intent, these just fell into my lap!

Sounds like you stumbled on Astra party mix. So few about tho. Feltham had a set and Coral Island. Rare as back in the day.

Never any in Lisa's that I knew about. It has closed down now anyhow.

a shipleys should have a set as a set used to be in mansfield but they only had a 125 float in each of them
