At least your chase accepts bagged loose coin Sterling. Mine HAS to have it rolled before they accept them. Even at my size rolling that many quarters is a pain in the golpher hole. I heard CapOne is pretty good about loose coin, so I'll be checking them out tomm and will report back.

Talk to Mxer518 he is a fountain of information on medical vending. From what I know (very little) its not a cheap venture to get into but well worth it in the long run, and typically it does better in certain seasons than others.

Your sams must be desperate to get rid of those lol those things are $139 here. For $50 whats the worst that could happen? You're getting an OK machine and a box of gumballs.

Im trying to pick up a used multi price machine but am having difficulty figuring out which model it is to find a manual for it. It's a Dr. Pepper machine with slanted selection buttons. The seller sent me a pic of the model # plateand I do at least know that its a Vendo machine but the model # is LONG. Model # 630DPD00032 991101. The crazy part is it has a tag that says its been refurbed by Dixie Narco...WTH!?!? Plz help me someone lol.

GRAVY LOCATION!!! $56.25 at one of my oil change shops!! I thought the quarters would never stop coming out, it was awesome. I can only imagine if I had gumballs instead of PMM (lowest seller surprisingly enough). Now onward with my expansion.

I WISH my sams had bouncy balls, they don't even have gumballs in stock. I would vote for bouncy balls as well, especially if u can get some kind of sports mix.

It doesn't have to be dremel brand as they are pricey. Any rotary tool and cutting/drill bit will work. They can be had for cheap at autozone pepboys etc. Use some masking tape to lay an outline for the slot and away you go.

If you've got a dremel you've got a money slot ;-)

Is it a triple or one of the 4 ways?

Thanks for all of the wishes everyone! He's doing great, giving US a run for our money on sleep but still great lol.

My son Miquel was born Thursday night @ 7:47 pm cst !!!!!!!!!!! He is the perfect bundle of joy for the Mrs and I. Everytime I look at him or hold him I get this feeling that starts at my core and flows to every part of my body (not gas ). I now understand why some of my fellow members fight tooth and nail to make their businesses work. Everything I am and everything I have is dedicated to this little person and his mother. I am more motivated than EVER to be the best that I can be in everything I do. It's such an emotional rush that I still haven't totally processed now can I put it all into words, so I appologize if this doesn't 100% make sense. This is the happiest I've ever been in my life. Yes, Miquel is our first born. ;D

If you have any simple green concentrate that always works pretty good for me. Use it UNdiluted for adhesives. Good luck.

Thanks Mxer. Any advice with either of these machines? Are they quiet enough to keep indoors? Do they leak all over the floor, how can I prevent this? I also have a loc that has this problem with their machine and he wants me to place a machine there as well.

The store owner at my 9-5 approached me about replacing our soda machined @ 2 locations. These are at present bottle machines @ 1.10. I would like to be able to sell monster 16oz cans out of the new machine I pick up because I know half of the employees at those stores drink energy drinks EVERY morning (I've watched em when I ran those 2 stores).So my question is what machine will let me vend 20oz bottles AND my monsters and possibly redbull at the same time obviously with differing prices. Thanks in advance everyone. Of course I am looking for best price since this will be funded with my tax return.

My gameplan for 2010 is DEF different from my plan last yr. I've had a couple of very blessed/lucky situations come up for me over the last few months. The owners of the franchise I work for have asked me to place/replace machines at all of our stores (several of which have coke machines that I will be replacing). On the bulk end of things the stores that I work for will be a great addition to my route, no charity no comm. I have seen the light on the candy vs gumballs and toys reality and will be doing as much as I can to get into more gumballs and bouncy balls etc with ALL of my new locations. Outside of the franchise I work for none of my new spots will be triples with straight candy aka wasteful. I will go with doubles with just gumballs and a candy of the locations choosing and upgrade if they can handle the equipment. I will NOT be wasting equipment dollars on locations that cant support said equipment, that got me into alot of trouble last yr and will not be happening again this yr. Last year I still treated this business like a hobby and came extremely close to getting out. This yr will be a year of actual GROWTH!
