They say:

"Grab A Gift" is finally ready! A routine that Steve (Dela) and I (Liam Montier) have been using for a while, our original sets were printed and laminated, which looked OK, but these are in a completely different league!

In effect, you give the spectator a chance to win a fabulous prize (see the cards at the link above) and they end up winning something that they certainly didn't expect!

Included with the cards are routines by Steve Dela and Liam Montier, together with other ideas and suggestions.

The cards are full colour, custom printed onto plastic stock (credit card thickness) so that they look good and are practically indestructible.

I say:

Basically this is a varient of the "Night Out" type routine.

There are no sleights or moves and everything is examinable.

The cards are really nice, robust and look convincing.

The instructions are clear and offer nice varients.

There is a handling of the cards you must use to be assured of the "correct" outcome but it is "easy-peasy" and natural in every way. You won't need any card skills.

A simple but charming trick that will amuse and confuse!

Overall:
This is fun.

If you perform strolling, table or impromptu magic you really shouldn't pass this one by without giving it a good stare.

Rating: 8 /10 The price is a little steep but the quality shows through.
