QUESTION FOR EVERYONE: Where do you keep their tokens/coins??
« on: November 01, 2006, 07:47:27 pm »
Hello,

I'm just posting a question to the general community...where do you keep your coins/tokens for your arcade machines?  I currently just have them all dumped into a bowl next to my arcades, looking for more unique ideas.  Hope to get lots of responses!!

I just use a glass fishbowl-like container I got from the craft store..

Although, we're trying to get Santoro to create some BYOAC branded containers  :)  Might want to hit him up to see where he stands on that  :)

Do many people have change machines in their houses?  I don't know if its really worth it they're pretty big and bulky, I'd love a small little change machine that would be neat.

That's the only one I have.  That's why I keep posting it.  I'm making up for quantity with, well, quantity.

You should ask Santoro about this.  We were talking about these in another thread.

I keep mine in some cups I stole borrowed from Chuckle Cheese's. Then each of my kids can use their own cup o' tokens.

I stand there with one of those apron-like things with pouches, and a coin dispensor on my belt.
