Not at this time Kelly. Money is short and time is shorter.

Sold my route...CheckI made it to Texas...Check

Well if anyone is interested in playing fantasy hockey I started a league on ESPN. Send me an email or PM for an invite. Draft is an auto pick on Monday am so you don't need to know who is the best player for each position it is all assigned randomly. http://games.espn.go.com/fhl/leagueoffice?leagueId=31708&seasonId=2010

Tampa won the cup the year before the strike so they kept it for two years. Only team to win the cup once and have it for two seasons. House never sold so the bank can have it. They would not work with us at all so they caused the move to Texas to happen sooner then expected. All bets are off on the Coyotes, now that Gretzky resigned the other day. Fantasy hockey leagues are fun and don't take much time.

I guess I am number two then. I have been a fan for quite awhile. Former Caps and Lightning fan, now I am a Stars fan due to my move. I am on two fantasy leagues as well.

Welcome to the group. Stay with the plan and you should be ok. Run the deal by the members here and we can give you pointers on the purchase.

If I was looking for a rack that size I guess I would pay in the $400 range. I am not sure about NW prices though. I may be biased due to my 6 way Beaver that I got for $150 half full of product.

He gives the commission to his girfriend who helps run the place for her to buy clothes or extra spending money. The triple goes to charity though. Most owners don't want to deal with stocking a rack with product that sells.

What about Cuttingd Edge/TNT. I would try the Fast Food Erasers or maybe the Glitter Mini Tats from them.

I am no mechanic and I have not stayed at that Holiday Inn yet so I think something may be up. Why would he be willing to buy a used motor if you pay to put it in? You have no warranty and it is a nice jesture but what is his gain from it? It sounds like he made a good profit on it if he can get you a used engine and still make money on the deal. I hope it is nothing too bad.

Welcome and you have a plan so you know what to work for. I would also suggest getting into racks when you get more comfortable as there is some good money to be made there. I have one rack and it does at least $80 a month. Many here do a lot better then that each month. With that rack and a triple I have in the same location it pulls a good $100 each month after the 10% commission on the rack.

Some people find that a local one has a better advantage of getting in. Others find a national one has more exposure and that may help. I went local and use our Humane Society. They did not have a program so I made up the stickers for the machines. It also gave me a placement in their lobby to add to the visibility of my machines. They both have good points and bad so it comes down to a matter of choice in how you feel.

They donated a box of sticker/tattoo product to our fundraiser I organizied this past spring. I like the twist they put on flat vending. The prices are clearly posted on their web site for each product and display cards. I have not bought from them yet but I plan to in the future when I get my 4 column placed. I have never been called by them so you must have got on someones list somewhere else.

I vend 6-8 at a time and at that rate your should gross about $400 per case.

Welcome to the board. There is a wealth of info here to help you along. Vendstars are either liked or hated depending on the vendor. They are cheap to get you started in vending and some use them to buy better or newer machine that they like. They will hold up better in breakrooms. Profits are not really tied to the machine but the location. A shinny machine in a bad location will not make money go into the cash box. It's all about selection of product & location and location in the location. Your average triple should take in about $20 a month. Then take out your costs for product and charity or commission and you have the bottom line per say.
