For Fortnite fans nothing comes close to having a stash of V-Bucks – and the same goes for Roblox.
But when children are asking for them for Christmas, it doesn’t feel like much of a present when you’re simply handing over cash or a voucher.
That’s why parents have come up with their own idea to make it more of a gift, and it involves chocolate too.
Mums have been ordering V-Buck and Robuck stickers to put on chocolate coins so they can fill a box with them as well as the voucher.
They’ve been sharing the idea in the popular Family Lockdown Tips & Ideas Facebook page, where it’s really taken off.
Sharing a photo of a gold star shaped box filled with the coins and a £25 voucher, mum Abigail Austin said: “If like me you have a Roblox and/or Fornite crazy kids that just want Robucks or V-Bucks for Christmas, I did this for mine to make it look a little more like a present. Stickers are from eBay and choc pennies from Amazon.”

Speaking to the M.E.N’s Manchester Family, Abigail said: “There are two of them, one each for my sons Dan and Jackson. They both had vouchers on their lists and I wanted to make them look a bit more like presents to open on Christmas morning.”
Alaine Smith has done the same for her son eight-year-old son Blake – filling a box with Robucks and a £20 Roblox voucher.

She said: “My son thinks Santa can’t bring him a Roblox card, so I thought I’d add the Robucks in with them.”
The V-Bucks stickers can be ordered here and the Robucks here. Packs of stickers cost from around £2, or you can get coins with the stickers already on for £5.50 for a bag of 15.
