Bdvend Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I have 4 sams in my area and they all still sell gumballs. I guess it is just a regional thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antoniocinisi Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 they dont have them in club anymore,only as special order, which I assume I need to pay for shipping.Costco,or Bjs arent an option. I am trying to see if Ford will sell a pallet with free shipping.they are also asking for a credit app even if I am paying upfront with my credit card.I dont get that one. it`s a lot of gum, I am expanding a little due to circumstances at my regular job plus free shipping, otherwise I would get less if no free shipping.

AMD Snacks Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Is this sams thing something new, or just regional like was mentioned? Because as of two weeks ago my sams still was selling gumballs....Not sure about right now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullyfrog Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 They still carry them at all 3 near me. If they stop there's BJs and Costco close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainor5251 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Mine quit selling too. Want to start using oak leaf anyways called A&A and they said they don't sell oak leaf and then tried pushing the zed gum, which by the way I should have just said no thanks and hung up but couldn't help sharing my opinion on the name and the displays of them. It's been a while since I special ordered from the members desk but last time you could still get everything ship to store and pick up for free, is this not the case anymore. I know ordering online only gives you the shipped to you option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaneTrain Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Since we are on this, I am going to place an order online from Sam's for some 1080 count DB and some Very Cherry. Do you all like the very cherry by DB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antoniocinisi Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 they could not let me order the 1080 gum I used to order at the service desk nor the 850 they used to carry, at the store, even if that item is an active item.it seems online only and pay for shipping, unless you guys have the alternative I am looking for!

ricjo vending Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 A few sams in my area aren"t carrying gumballs and mike and ikes no more.Both are my best sellers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodney69 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Most of the manufactures sell pallet with free shipping for gum, or maybe a 50 fee. Double bubble is 50 for free shipping last I checked. Not including A&A. If a few lived close enough people could pitch in on a pallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havending Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Some Sams still sell gum. Not sure how they decide what ones will carry it. But I can buy at 5 clubs in my service areas. To order at SAMs get it on line. They offer lots of it. If you use AA for product get ZED gum from them it's good gum. Use the gum to boost your weight and reduce over all freight cost.

I can use this zed gum in my 5 foot spiral? I was looking at gum balls.com. Any better suggestions for purchase? I have Costco and BJ nearby..

bullyfrog Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Costco or BJs hands down. Especially if you're just starting out. A box of 850 generic dubble bubble will be around $20 per box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Costco business centers sell gum. I think their are 5 in the US. If going the price club route prepare for chipping. Make a spiral look bad quick.

DJVending Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 So what would you recommend as a wholesale club alternative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJVending Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 What brand gumball is reasonably priced that won't fade and chip as quickly as the dubble bubble? I picked up the machine yesterday and it had gumballs in it that were about 6-8 months old I just chucked them didn't look too appealing I'd rather start fresh and wanted to clean the machine inside out.. I'll post some pics. Need some new locks top and bottom.. Any high security ones available? And I need that high security screw tool as well..

DJVending Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I need to top And bottom Locks and also I noticed the bolts that hold the top red dome to the globe are missing nuts. How you you tighten the nuts by removing the globe from bottom security screws and then tighten and reassemble?

vipergts Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Luckily my Sams still carries them too. But they haven't carried the chicles in years. I've been ordering the chicles from their website since then and paying shipping to my house. I just placed an order for them online and my order was cancelled saying they don't have them in stock. I hope they aren't going to phase these out??? Where do you guys buy chicles? There is a costco here but I haven't been in, do they carry them? I don't have a bj's whatever that is.
