I'm havin a party @ Dave and Busters in Hanover,MD?? What good is a $5 Power card??

Question

I'm gonna tell my guests to bring extra money to recharge their power card when it runs out. The party is 4 hours. And it's not like i'm being cheap, but im provding the venue (d&b is expensive), $5 power card, drinks, cake, quality party favors, and TRANSPORTATION!! I don't think it should be a problem for them to bring extra money for it. What do you think?

Answer 1

From my experience with Dave and Busters, a $5 power card doesn't go very far.  It gets you a few games of skee ball, or lets you drop a few tokens in the pusher game to win tickets, but it really doesn't go far, especially if they're playing any driving games or games that require higher chip prices (usually token games are 8 chips to 4).  Tell them to bring extra money, because they'll be bored after 20 minutes or so.

BTW: Remember the "person over 26 is allowed to bring only six under 21-year-olds" policy.
