TOGETHER WITH SPREE BAR

Spree Bar is not the story of only one person. It is the story of a blended team of “misfits” who found a home at Charlie’s. A group of creative, driven, WILD individuals who want to make this world a truly better place… one product at a time. In a world built on instant gratification, the Charlie’s company works, painstakingly, to create alternative products that we are proud to and share with adult consumers everywhere. We are passionate about our work. We focus on quality, transparency, and… change. SPREE BAR, is powered by both our history as an internationally-known flavor house (Charlie’s Chalk Dust & PACHAMAMA) and by our research and development team’s exceptional efforts to develop the best disposable vapes in America. Charlie’s talented team of nonconformists worked tirelessly over more than a year to create SPREE BAR. The result? An innovative, one-of-a-kind product that furthers our mission, helps adult consumers abandon combustible tobacco, and provides 6,000-puffs at less than half the price of conventional disposables.

IN THE NEWS

Dave and Busters Will Now Allow Customers to Bet on Arcade Games 🎮

Whilst strolling through any arcades, always stop to take a photo and play around in Lightroom. You’ll be impressed.

Dave & Buster's, a famous restaurant and arcade chain, is going to let customers bet money on arcade games. A tech company named Lucra is teaming up with Dave & Buster's to provide a digital betting service. Customers will be able to digitally place cash bets while playing games like Skee-Ball, pool, and basketball shooting games at the arcades.

The betting will be for "skill-based" games where the outcome depends on the player's abilities like knowledge, strength, speed and intelligence. Only people 18 and older enrolled in Dave & Buster's loyalty program will be able to place bets. The typical bet size will be around $5 to $10 according to Lucra. However, it's unclear exactly which games will offer betting or when this new feature will launch.

Some legal experts say betting on your own game of skill is allowed, like pro golfers paying entry fees to compete for prizes. But betting on others' games could be considered illegal gambling. There are also concerns that exposing kids to gambling at a young age at family-friendly places like Dave & Buster's could lead to future gambling addictions. With 164 locations, it remains uncertain how many will actually implement this arcade game betting.
