Quick question

Post by bowie »

Do quiz machines with noteys give change? I have a pub that hates to give change and only the quiz has a notey, is it viable to change notes in the quizzer?

The minimum spend is a quid so if you change a tenner it's costing you 10% if you can't win your quid back.

assuming it is a titbox. in which case you will only get £8 back because the payout chute is invariably buggered.
nobody ever wins on those things.

I would warn you that Itboxes frequently IOU when spitting out your £9 change ... in my experience anyway!

The best thing to do is walk into said pub armed with coins so that you cannot possibly need any change.
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

Trouble is, these days you need £200 in coins on you to be sure! Even that hasn't been enough for me 4 times in the last few months.

IN fact it was you who said "The last thing you need is a bloody quiz when you're £200 into a Red!", that still makes me chuckle now.

Yep, sometimes it can be an almighty piss take day.

I find if you rock the machine forwards a bit the rest comes out. either that or the barman chucks you out because he thinks your trying to fiddle it or f*ck it up because you lost :?
me and a mate had £9 come out on the first attempt on a £18 bank, and i'll be frigged if i'm letting some shmo have half my winnings

Try feeding a few 2p coins through it.

They fall through the chute a dislodge any coins caught in the pay area.

I had a Snailblazer in a night club that has a sticky coin chute. Batter it against a wall a couple of times and about £15 magically appeared :P

Also once "won" "18 and 3 packs of condoms out a condom machine with a sticky mech. Punched in in anger and some coins came out - repeated until empty!

haha. wierd
