Out Dated Snacks

A fully-mechanical snack vending machineImage via Wikipedia Out dated Snacks can be a problem for your business if you don't keep up with dates on the bags. Potato chips are a big one when it comes to expired dates on the bags. Many folks due to the economy have been trying to cut their cost, and save money by allowing the expiration date of an item to go past its overdue date to get more bang for the buck. I would advise you to keep an eye out for the dates on the snacks if they are not told far off most times the food is still fresh and edible to eat.

Candy Cash Flow and Spolage Problems

Candy Cash Flow Tips - Do you have candy spoilage problems?

Never fill a machine up more than ¼ of the way before you know how a location is going to perform. If you are consistently having spoilage problems then you are filling your machines too high. Also, if using M&M Peanuts make sure to keep your machines out of direct sunlight.

- When you purchase candy always check the label on the store shelves; here you will find the per ounce price of the candy. You will often find that smaller bags will have a lower per ounce cost than larger bags. Location Cash Flow Tips - Take advantage of our Platinum or Gold packages that include UNLIMITED replacement locations for $20 each for two years.

- Consider this: It costs around $55 to place a machine. Now consider you keep the location for 1 and ½ years. Second, you replace the location at a cost of only $20. Over three years time you have only spent $75 on locating fees or $25 per year. Machine Cash Flow Tips

- The more inexpensive the machine is the quicker it will pay for itself. - New machines do not make more money than used machines. Now go make some quarters!
