Anyone know what this is about!
Anyone know what this is about!
Don't know if anyone can help... Probably seems a daft question but nethertheless something i have always been interested in...
Licensed betting offices always have their windows blocked out with the latest promotions / stakes etc... I assume this is to stop children from being encouraged to enter etc.
I have also noticed that a number of AEC's or amusement arcades often have a number of items in the window (i.e. electrical items such as toasters, kettles etc / ornaments.) These items either have a price attatched in small writing or a sign somewhere saying these items are for sale.
Is this some way of getting through a licensing loophole by offering some items for SALE rather than as PRIZE??
I know most of you probably walk past this to get inside but does anyone have the answer?
Cheers, Stu.
