    Default I caught a Pikachu!

    I got a Pikachu phone charm today. It's cool. I got it from one of those machine thingies....y'know...you put a quid in, twist the twisty thing, and the prize comes out?

    Yeah, well, I got a Pikachu! I was hoping to get one, and it worked! Yey!

    Two things:

    1) What are those "machine thingies....y'know...you put a quid in, twist the twisty thing, and the prize comes out?" actually called?

    2) What's the coolest thing you've ever gotten from one?

    I once bought 20 bouncing balls in one day.

    I then proceded to bounce them everywhere. It was awesome.

    I used to wrap paper around pennies to make a twenty pence piece, it worked once and two powerballs came out.

    Dunno what they're called, but we have one at the cinema foyer, and another in the mall.

    I remember one time I got a plastic watch type thing with silver balls in it. It wasn't a working watch, but a little mini puzzle maze thing. It was ages ago, so I'm surprised I remember it. I think it was actually 10p. One of the old chunky ones.

    Maan, I'm oooooold...

    I always give into those things whenever I go bowling. The ones with the sweeties inside them! I'll end up paying 20p for like 6 minstrels. xD

    ...but they look so good in those machines.

    I saw a pokemon yesterday when I was catching pokemon. I wanted to weaken it (it was a lvl3 to my level 10 pidgie) but I killed it by mistake! D:

    I was sad so I kept farming crap there until I finally saw it again! (took me like 15 of the longest minutes ever) Yay I now have

    A pikachu!

    We call them 'Crap for a quarter' here. And I love them. I've never gotten anything actually amazing from them, but I do like the candy ones and the ones that have jewelry <3
