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.
Thanks soooo much. I did this years ago and forgot how to do it. Thanks again
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
Are you still needing this information on how to use it? I have the book.
I have one that I am willing to sell if anyone is interested.. Contact me
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.
Oops, forgot to also say this... i believe the small tube needs it's little cap on before inserting it into the large tube!
I have a pump a present I can sell complete with instructions, tubes etc. Interested?
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 cant locate razmatazcreations online.
Where can I get the balloons?
I have one right in front of me. I am new here and just found you googling a video to try to work it. You put the pink inside the yellow and then the green on the end.
Are you still looking for it? I have the Pump-a-Present Plus for sale. Has VHS tape, instruction manual, balloons, clips, and all tubes.
