I just spotted an ad proclaiming that Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut has added 700 nickel slots. My first thought was that nickel slots at least allow you to lose your money slowly, but then I read that some of the new video slot machines at Foxwoods will let you play 90 nickels per spin! I guess that's still only $4.50. At nearby Mohegan Sun Casino, where the smallest slot denomination is a quarter, they boast of having New England's only $500 slot machine!
