GagesVending Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Wow! Do the school officials really have nothing better to worry about? I just started selling Flatline's 2" Zombie Hunter Mix which has similar keychains in it; so hopefully the kids don't bring them to school!

LandJGroup Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I can remember when you could take a blade to school as long as it was under three inches. If it was longer we would have to turn it in and get it after school. Also remember leaving my rifle or bow in my truck in high school, so I could go hunting before and or after school. If you did that now they would send ya to jail. My have the times changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havending Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 That's one reason why we don't sell them. I agree we never have and never ever will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musser Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I agree we never have and never ever will. Funny, gun mixes are good sellers for me and I have never had a problem. But a lot of my route is small rural towns where everyone grew up with guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlock Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Just when you thought things couldn't get more absurd...this kid was suspended and didn't even have a TOY gun. All he did was make the shape of a gun with his fingers and make "bang" sounds when playing cops and robbers. http://now.msn.com/jordan-bennett-florida-boy-suspended-from-school-for-pointing-his-finger-like-a-gun So stupid it's scary.

dkochan Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 2" Cop Shop, 2" Guns n' Grenades and are excellent sellers for me. Thus far I haven't received any complaints from locations. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk now Free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk now Free You and Havending are lucky. I realize these are great sellers. But you really have to choose carefully where you place them. And in this day and age of children shooting real guns and lawsuits it's not worth it to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkochan Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I am based out of Atlanta which is a pro gun state so toy gun mixes aren't a problem. I do agree that we need to be selective on what toys we put in machines. For example, 2" Balloon Whistles sell well but, are not suitable for sit down restaurants.

musser Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I did have a problem with rubber band shooters once had to take them out of a rest after a kid used one to shoot a toothpick into his dads neck Family dollar stores banned gun mixes recently because of a complaint over " guns and grenades" You need to know your customers for sure., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorderJerry Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Now now....tell the truth. I remember seeing your 'Hunger Games' rack set up....you had the rubber band guns in the middle, you sold the toothpicks out of the left machine, and in the right machine you had band-aids...
