Desktop Candy Grabber!

Bought this a while back just because it looked so cool. Now I've always been somewhat of a Skill Tester buff, so when I saw this for sale at Dick Smith Electronics, I just had to buy it! It operates just like a skill tester except that the crane controls are separated into 3 separate controls instead of being amalgamated into the one. A bit fiddly to control, but still easy to get the hang of once you've tried it a couple of times.


This little baby runs on 3 D-size batteries and is coin operated. In reality, the coin just pushes a small button, so using anything including a stiff piece of card will work. All in all, it's a great accessory for the desktop that'll have you earning your sweet treats instead of guzzling them down without any effort! If you're planning to go on a diet, this gadget will probably do you some good. Not to mention you'll rack up quite a saving after all paying $1 for all those misses! One thing though - grabbing gum balls is nigh impossible, so it's a much better idea to fill it up with chocolates and candies instead.
