Refill Prizes for Carnival Crane Game

I love it when people give something a bad review or bad score because THEY were MISTAKEN over what the item is meant for, and apparently did not read the description before clicking on "buy." They should be giving THEMSELVES 1 out of 5 stars instead of the item! This is a little bag of miniature toy prizes that are meant to be used as REFILL for the MINIATURE CLAW MACHINE toy.

My kids probably "win" about 40% to 50% of their games, which is pretty much ideal. If they never won, or won every time, they would probably become bored and never want to play at all. Toys which they "win" are never played with, but end up being placed back in the machine for future games.

Bought this refill for my young grandsons; actually works well!! Us adults even had fun with this and will continue to do so!!
