There goes my excuse...

Every time we walk by one of these "claw" arcade games at a restaurant or bowling ally, my kids beg to play. I've told them time and time again that nobody ever wins and its a waste of money. 

This weekend, my siblings and I took our kids to a bowling ally that had an arcade attached. I had purchased a card for the kids to play a few arcade games and before we knew it, the card was down to $0.75 remaining. Molly begged to play "the claw" so I let her use up the last of the money on one claw game. 

Wouldn't you know the girl didn't win just one prize, the claw actually grabbed TWO prizes!  Crap!  I have to think of a better excuse from now on!
