Hi everyone,

I was wondering if any of you have had experience with a Money booth at your carnival? We are having one at ours in a couple of weeks and stuck on the price to charge to go into it. We are also stuck on how much money to put into it. I guess I should say also that we are doing half money and half fake money with ticket numbers on them for the prize redemption room.

Any help would be appreciated!

how does this work? do you turn on a fan and the money blows around?

Diem,

I guess so. We've never used one before but we got it for free from our fundraising company. They are supplying our carnival this year as part of our new contract with them.

Have you asked the fundraising company what they would recommend? They might have some info on using the booth in this manner.

Our fundraising company also supplies us with a money machine to use for the students reward as part of selling xx amount of items at our fundraising reward party. They supply the money for the machine. The company comes in during the day for like 2 hours and the students who sold 12 items get to come down and play on the inflatables during school for a couple hours. The company supplies the money machine for those students who sold xx amount and they also provide cotton candy to all students attending the event. The company then stays over after school hours for our spring fling family event for 2 hours--last year we paid for them to stay over but this year we worked it into the contract that they take on this costs and we pay nothing for them to stay over for the family event and they agreed!!

We put $200 in singles in the machine... crumple them up. The most anyone has otten is $25. It is harder than it looks. Than we pay them out from a different stash of money so the next person has the same chance of winning.

Ours is part of our general raffle at the Fun Fair. We pull 4 names throughout the night. The kids love it and it is so fun to watch!
