Not sure if this is the right forum, but anyway. This would only apply to those near/in Weston I guess :D

Anyway inside the Grand Pier, theres a claw/grabber machine thing, and if you put 5p into it, you get 30 goes.

The yellow square is that yellow ride which goes up and down (like Apocalypse at Drayton Manor). The green box is a set of 4 claw machines, and the one called number 4 is the 5p for 30 trys one. The purple line at the side is the crazy house.

Good for some in the area who want to get some soft toys to resell on eBay.

    How can the "Quick, grab it while you can" forum NOT be the right place for a claw machine! Great find! I can just imagine the queue of MSE fans outside it now!

    It would be great for people who use this trick to see who has gone and what have you won :P

    I remember when these were first launched in Blackpool many years ago...before they were all "fixed".....nearly every 20p resulted in a win...they were even giving big plastic bags away to carry your goodies home...now I doubt if I could win anything with even 30 tries...any luck anyone?
