What did YOU do?

When I was more allowably childishI was dispatched to Snowdonia with my fellow scrogs and the Hostel of Youths we were closeted away in had a games room; one table top arcade machine (Lunar Lander I believe) and a pool table.
I discovered that you could have 2 games for the price of 1 if you pushed the little metal coin tray in just enough to release the balls, but not all the way, so it got stuck. You can't do it anymore due to an improved mechanism but I have embarrassing memories of imagining a friend and I clinking together our 10 pence pieces in a weird monetary high-five celebration of this extraordinary value. We didn't actually do that, it was something my imagination felt appropriate to suggest, but even then I knew how embarrassing it would be to actually do that.
As with the Cherry Coke tale above, it sure is satisfying to put one over on them coin munching metal bastards.
