On Sunday, my mommy and I went out to enjoy the snow. It was snowing and snowing and snowing and just like powder, with big hills everywhere. But after a while it was getting cold so we stopped by at a games place (mommy calls it Chinese Chuck E. Cheese). We played "slam a winner" and got a jackpot and also a 100! Actually it was our last coin that got the jackpot! As soon as the ball went in the hole bells started ringing, the machine started printing thousands of tickets, and it ran out. We had to ask the man to refill it and then it kept on going til they were bunched all on the floor. We actually got a bit frustrated earlier because the machine was made just to give you like a 1 or 2 or 5 and not 25 or 50 or 75 or jackpot. It was impossible to get those, because there was a little piece of plastic put there on purpose to make the ball go into the other holes. So my mom started cheating by pushing on the outside plastic, and then guess what, an alarm sounded, it sounded like a police car! But because the rest of the place is so noisy, nobody heard! Our total was 959 tickets. We went to the counter to see what we could buy with them, and I wanted a little orange tea set. We thought it was 800 but the prices were actually switched and it was really 1800! We were really bummed out so we started thinking. I had the idea for my mom just to buy it. She asked and they had to ask the manager and then let us buy it for 45 RMB. My mom said it was cheaper than all of those tokens. Then we played basketball. It's like real basketball. You have to see how many baskets you can make in like one minute.
