While vending machines come in all shapes, sizes and for many different purposes, one of the most popular with children is the crane vending machine. This is often called a toy vending machine or a claw vending machine. The purpose of these machines is to allow someone to put coins in them and then to use a guided claw to try to get one of the toys out of the machine. These are commonly found at movie theatres, arcades, restaurants, and grocery stores. A crane vending machine draws a lot of attention from children who soon become frustrated when they are unable to win a prize the first time. Because of the challenge involved, many customers pay more than once while trying to win a prize.

Once they’ve tried it I’ve found that the Tractor Time Crane machine brings out the kid in everyone. I have one of these machines in an amusement park and another in an arcade and make loads of money.

Once they’ve tried it I’ve found that the Tractor Time Crane machine brings out the kid in everyone. I have one of these machines in an amusement park and another in an arcade and make loads of money.

The roar of the tractor as it rotates gets the adrenalin going in kids and adults, and it’s easy to operate. When they see the prize they want all they do is press the bright green button so the tractor can lower its excavator arm into the pile of prizes. The arm reaches for the prize and swings it over to the chute and then releases it.

I keep changing the prizes for the machine and I get them from the same place that I got all my machines, from candymachines.com , at great prices. I’ve put Plush and Beanie toys, balls, capsules and candy in all my machines and haven’t hit a bad prize yet.

Besides making money the other things I like about the machines are that they are made in the United States and if I need replacement parts they are easy to get. Also the machines are made of solid steel and the control settings are changeable from 50 cents up to $1.00.

Another successful machine for me is the Captain Claw Pirate Crane Machines. Instead of an excavator this machine has a claw that grabs for the treasures, in this case Plush toys. This machine is also made in the U.S. and comes in a melamine cabinet. It has been very successful in bowling alleys and supermarkets.

I really, really like the fact that these machines are built in the USA. If I ever have a problem (which is rare by the way) or a question I can easily call and get immediate help and support.  It gives me peace of mind and most important it keeps my down time very minimal, which means more money in my pocket!

Jelly Belly Candy Machine

The original gourmet jelly beans, Jelly Belly, now have their very own red and white mini dispenser. The bulk bin looking Jelly Belly Candy Dispenser offers three separate compartments so you can pick and choose different flavors to fill each column.

Now you can bring a piece of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans history into your home or office!

Born in 1976 these gourmet flavored jelly beans soared to popularity in 1981 when Ronald Reagan became President. The world learned of his love of Jelly Bellys, and the candies were always available in the Oval Office and on Air Force One where red, white and blue Jelly Bellys were offered to diplomats and world leaders.

And yet another claim to fame for Jelly Bellys is that they were the first jelly bean candy to enter outer space joining the first American female astronaut, Sally Ride! In 1983 as a presidential candy treat to the space shuttle Challenger astronauts, the weightless, free floating jelly beans were a big surprise.

The candy dispenser measures 8” high by 6” wide and comes with three 3.5 oz bags of Jelly Belly Very Cherry, Assorted Flavors and the Smoothie Blend from candymachines.com.

The dispenser is easy to operate. Simply press down a tab and out comes a handful of jelly beans. Other small candy or gum can also fill the columns. It’s just like having a candy store in your home or business. This will make a great last minute Father’s Day gift or birthday present. You can be sure it makes a fun gift for every Jelly Belly lover you know.

Last week I took my kids grocery shopping. On our way out of the supermarket they always want to stop by the vending machines. So we did.

Much to their excitement the machines have some new toys to choose from.

Last week I took my kids grocery shopping. On our way out of the supermarket they always want to stop by the vending machines. So we did.

Much to their excitement the machines have some new toys to choose from.

My fashion conscious 11-year-old daughter’s eyes fell on the machine with 1” True Color Rings . There was everything from hip hot pink, brilliant blue, sunflower yellow, purple and green rings all in different designs including red hearts, flowers, and the classic shapes like squares and ovals.

She put her 25 cents in the machine and much to her delight the capsule with the hip hot pink ring was her prize for the day. Suddenly she’s into going grocery shopping with me all the time. I know it’s only because she wants to get all 15 different rings.

Meantime my seven-year-old son spied the Spy Ear Vending Capsules in another machine. They are 2” capsules with handcuffs, guns, spy ear and more. He’s been playing cops and robbers with the kid next door, so getting the handcuffs was perfect. The he saw the Mini Flashlight capsules and asked for another quarter to get a flashlight to go with the handcuffs. I noticed they all come with a ring for his key chain.

He looked all the flashlights over and had a hard time picking which one he wanted. The choices included a yellow and red purse (not), a yellow lady big, a green tennis racket or a blue hand grenade. When the blue hand grenade came flying out of the chute he decided that was perfect to go along with the handcuffs.

Now it was my other son’s turn to pick a machine. He was all eyes for the Cartoon Projector 2” Vending Capsules. I had never seen them before, so he told me all about them. He said the projectors beam onto any surface and a cartoon image appears. So for a couple of quarters I made one five-year-old happy.

Now my kids want to go grocery shopping with me every week so that they can add to their collection of new toys.

I would imagine that the person who owns those vending machines will be busy keeping them filled since there was a line of kids waiting to spend their quarters on the new toys.

I understand candymachines.com has all these items in bulk.
