is it harrisons the one with the dodgem track within the arcade?

A local arcade near me has two token machines 8 pound jackpot 10p play. They go on big 40 runs as they have the Mab programs in them. The staff offer vouchers redeemable in several convenience shops in the town.
On the same topic Nobles used to redeem tokens for cigarettes years ago.

Nope, Harrisons is the one on the high street. More adult orientated, but it has the bingo section at the back. Been there for years, and their bingo has the most custom in town.

The arcade which had the dodgems in has now been re-vamped. And the dogems have now gone , there is no bingo in there.

Thanks for all your replies, I'll have to check out the places you all mentioned, particularly Margate and Southend as those aren't too far away.

I agree with the poster that mentioned Funland in Blackpool, I won some good prizes in there.

The only one that was open when I went there at the weekend was Coral Island but that's quite good as sometimes you win tokens faster than you can spend them! They also let you exchange tokens for food and drink vouchers which is good!

I know of a few.
One is the arcade in Dawlish which as a seperate room to the side of the main arcade.

Trecco bay holiday park in porthcawl used to have one in its main arcade, though this was over 6 years ago so may have gone now.

Also the quicksilver arcade in walsall town centre up by the market used to have prize bingo....again at least 4 years since i've been in there though so may also have gone
