An Independent claim is also included for a method for filling the device with confetti, comprising introducing packs of confetti one after the other into a groove in a rigid filling tube of slightly smaller cross section than the throwing tube (2), inserting the filling tube into the throwing tube, and withdrawing the filling tube while holding the last pack to be introduced.
