Your DH is a selfish Knob jock.

SPlot between the kids.

Mine often put it all together and buy a game or something to share

There are some good things such a ornaments and gadgets Reed diffusers and candles . As well as some good toys but they are lots of tickets so if dh get anything half decent it will prevent the kids getting a good toy each . We are gunna be here a week so we can collect a decent amount but not if its splits 3 ways to include him in the prizes

Wow OP I feel sorry for you that you are even having to consider your DH is this situation. Surely it would be cheaper to buy one of those things.

Split between the children

Is your DH the father of your kids? I can't imagine a DF begrudging his own children a toy from an arcade!

Pat DH on the head and tell him that if he gives his tickets to DC you'll get him an ice-cream and he can stay up past his bedtime.

Your husband was being a tit about this.

All of the things you mentioned can be bought all over the place if he wanted them so badly.

Did he sulk?

You're not actually being serious are you? Your DH will get arsey if he doesn't get a share of the arcade tickets?!?!
The fun as an adult is actually winning them (so I'm told. I fucking hate arcades) and the fun of spending them is for the kids
I would tell him to get over himself and split between the kids

I play these all the time along DCs on holiday as my DCs love them and love it when the tickets spill out .
Have never once kept any tickets for myself as I'm a grown adult!! Give them all to DCs. I can buy myself a reed diffuser if I want, as ... being an adult... I have a debit card and some money in my bank.

Honestly whaaaaaattt is your DH thinking ??? It's all tatt. But to DCs it's precious prizes from a treasure chest
