Gum substitute?

The tiny gumballs are not very good so what else have you used in your trade stimulator?

Maybe you shouldn't use bullets, they taste terrible ;-)

Not to mention lead poisoning! But marbles work for looks and action, some jawbreakers work too. Go to an old time candy store and see what they have. As a side note on the cigarette reel strip trade stims I found a place that sells the old fashioned hard candy cigarettes that make it fun for the kids to play.
Looking for survivor machines especially vendor fronts or original side vendors with or without
a machine. 1920's-30's goosenecks, round escalators. I enjoy hand painting the castings.

I also have used jawbrakers. I like the Willy Wonka everlasting Gob stoppers.

I buy Double Bubble Gum Balls specifically for machines. Walmart carries them and they taste great. Rick B

Hey Rick that's what I'm using now, found the same product at ToyrUs. Looking for ideas for something different.
Thanks
