Pump a Present?

Does anyone remembers a tube balloon stuffer from the early 90's, called Pump a Present? It is 3 tubes pink, purple, and green, you put a large balloon on one end, but somehow a small present goes in then you hand pump air into it. The present is in the balloon. Anyone know how it works or have directions? Please let me know. Thank you.

Hi Tina,
Yes, and it's funny that I saw your question posted, I was searching for balloon company's online to order some balloons to pull mine out to do a fund raiser. Well, anyway, the tubes go in descending order large to small depending on what you are stuffing. The large tube holds the stuffed item, you put the balloon over the opening of the large tube after you place your item inside, then the medium, then the small --the small one is the one you pump with. For small items you just use the medium and small tubes. Use the mini clips to snap and close off the end of the balloon. Then tie your ribbons and/or stick your bows on your present.

I have the pump a present by Innovations Sensations bought in the 1980's and can't remember how to use it the small tube has a cover that can be removed and says to put articles in it. It fits inside the middle tube and that fits in the large tube. but not sure how all is going to come out. and where you put the balloon. If you have directions an you post them Thanks

Thank you for that info. I've had one that I picked up from a thrift store years ago and never could figure it out. So after reading this thread yesterday, I tried again. For 2 hours! Never could figure it out. Then all of a sudden, today I had an epiphany and it all clicked! No one mentioned that the disk thing in the middle tube slides. (Duh me!) Now that I "see that," it's obvious that you use the small tube to slide the little disk (it says "bottom" on mine) all the way to the end until it stops. Then with the large tube standing on end, insert the small tube inside of it.

At this point, you will be looking at the open end of the nestled large & small tube. Now put the gift item/s inside the middle tube and stretch the balloon over the end, secured on the lip. Lastly, insert the "bottom" end in between the small & large tubes. Slowly push the medium tube downwards, which moves the bottom disk and blows up the balloon while raising the gift up inside the balloon. Voila! Then all you need to do is remove the balloon & clip it closed or tie it off. (I need fresh balloons, so I haven't mastered that yet, lol.)

Oops, forgot to also say this... i believe the small tube needs it's little cap on before inserting it into the large tube!

Is this still available? I never used mine and don't have anything but the tubes.

Hi there, thank you. It's not easy like the machine I've seen. Since the tubes are what I have, I will have to keep trying. The balloons, I find on eBay.

I got only 6 though to try it, and they stretch well. Try www.razmatazcelebrations.com thats her site, and thats the most reasonable I have found. Thanks again.
