I worked in a pretty busy arcade about 10 years ago. They told us to run the prize counter like a used car dealer, so we would make deals with kids to get them out of there faster. Only have 75 tickets? How about 1 of these things for 100? Usually the kids would be so happy they'd just take whatever we offered right away, and we could get them out of there. The ticket to dollar ratio is ridiculous, so there was no way to lose money unless you did something really egregious.
