This mini Candy Grabber is like having your very own diet control method on your desktop - now you have to earn your chocolates! Fairground 'Grabbers' seem just so rigged, so avoid spending £2 failing to pick up a desperately sad looking blue rabbit, and fill your very own Candy Grabber with your favourite sweets. Once you've popped one of the tokens in the slot, you have just one minute and fifteen seconds (but who's counting) to manoeuvre your grabber into position using the three levers, grab your candy and release it down the shoot. Truly horrible and yet strangely nostalgic carnival music plays while you desperately try to grab stuff, and gets faster and faster as your time runs out. When you do succeed in liberating your sweets, a motion sensor triggers off some tacky but satisfying applause! In order to stop you cheating, the hole in the top through which you load your sweets is too small for sticky little fingers. Of course if you're really bad at it you could just pick the whole thing up, turn it upside down and shake it, but oh the shame!

Customer Reviews for Candy Grabber
I used to be addicted to these machines as a kid but would always come away with an empty purse and no toy. When I saw that you could buy these I was so determined to have one, but the large ones were too pricey, so l'd pout and pout then I got this.
It's fantastic, just like the real thing but miniature. Word of warning keep it out of the office everyone will be stealing your sweets.

I love sweets, and this has saved me from becoming very obese. It is my saviour. I bow down to IWOOT and it's ideas

Bought this as a "mature" present for my friend's 16th tho couldn't resist having a go with it! Amazing fun - this gift is awesome! It works just like any arcade game and you can play it for hours!
Sara, Bournemouth
Bought the Candy Grabber for the grandchildren, but made the mistake of taking it into work with chocs in it. We are all now on a warning after fighting broke out over whose turn it was and who could get the best sweet...
Anita, Wallasey
This gift was bought for my husband for his birthday in two weeks' time. Right now, it's sitting in my office full of chocolates and everyone has had their turn. You've never seen our office so happy!!! This gift might not make its way to my husband for his birthday as I'm not sure I'll be able to get it out of the office!

The candy grabber is the ultimate toy for youngsters and golden oldies. So next time you feel peckish, you won't pig out, you will spend hours just trying to get a few sweets. Definitely worth it!
Toby S, Dunmow
Bought for a 7yr old for Christmas and is still being played with after all the other toys have been forgotten about!!! LOL. Lots of small toys went into it too and everyone wanted a go. One small complaint....HOW DO YOU TURN THE RUDDY MUSIC OFF AT 7 in the morning????? (Deborah, there's a little switch on the base to turn the music off, and peace will reign. Ed.)
Deborah D, Billingham
I bought this for a girl I work with, it's probably the best present in the world....ever! The excuses people were making to come into the office to have a go ranged from the stupid to downright outrageous..such is the power of the candy grabber
Amanda, Isle of Man
If you're looking for a warm up for Blackpool Pleasure Beach this summer then the Candy Grabber is the one for you! It certainly grabbed my attention and kept hold of it. It's one of those toys that everybody wants to try their luck with. Indeed, it's proven to be so successful that I'm thinking of charging when they use it. This could come in very handy as I've my eye on the £9.95 Hot Bear.

I have compared several candy machines. This one is by far the largest one I've seen! I've also noticed this one has the best customer reviews! I'm from the US and I can't wait to try out your product. And then tell everyone where I got it.

My brother brought me this candy grabber for christmas. I have had loads of fun and all the guests at our house have loved it too. My friend even wants one now that she's had a go on it!
Katie, Colchester
Every time I went to an arcade I saw this heavenly machine and at that moment I knew I was destined to have one. I dreamed all day and night about this machine but then my friend told me about this brilliant website and my dreams finally came true.
Matt, London

Because my radio doesn't have a sleep function I always used to go to sleep with my radio still blaring out through the house. Now I just plug my Sound Asleep Pillow into the radio and no one else is disturbed. Also you really can't feel the speaker which is amazing because the sound quality is excellent. A fantastic buy.
Arthur, Wrexham
