But then you’re proven right once they open your wallet.
Coincealed
You borrow several objects and place them in a row on the table: a watch, nail clippers, a pen and a coin. Through a fair process of elimination your friend chooses one: the coin. You then reveal that the objects themselves spell out the word “coin.”
$100 Prize

Slippery Sleeves
You produce a tall glass of liquid...from your jacket sleeve.
Fugitive Coin
You make a coin magically change in their hands!

Mysterious Magic Square
This is an amazing display of mental dexterity, in which you seemingly do impossible calculations using a number chosen by someone else. Don’t worry though, no difficult math is actually required.
Note Way
You ask someone to hide a dollar bill under one of three upside-down cups, and then invite them to mix the cups while your back is turned. You then turn back around and hover your hand above the cups, trying to sense where the bill is. Amazingly, you’re able to get it right every single time.
Change Machine
Someone selects a card, which is then lost in the deck. You explain that you will try to find the card, and if you can’t, you’ll buy them anything from a nearby vending machine. You attempt to find it... and get the wrong card! So, you insert the playing card into the vending machine’s money slot and the card magically changes to the selection inside the machine!
Milky Coffee
You’re at a restaurant with a black coffee. You take a coffee creamer and somehow make the cream vanish from inside the container. Then, when you stir your coffee, the milk magically appears inside.
Water Cooler Moment
Despite holding a glass of water upside down, you’re magically able to make the water stay in the glass.
Heads or Tails
Your friend randomly drops some coins onto the table and then, while you are looking away, they mix coins up so that there’s no way you could know the heads/tails orientations of the coins. They then cover one of the coins with their hand, and when you turn back around, you are able to see right through their hand and tell them if the coin is showing heads or tails.
A Total Trip
You show some blank postcards and ask someone to write down the name of their dream destination. Without ever looking at the postcard, you are able to read their mind and figure out exactly where they would love to visit.
