trim2008 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hey guys ive been kinda brainstorming. Ive come up with an idea that I hadnt seen before and im wondering if its a good idea or if it pointless effort. Would mini candy bars work in a bulk vending and would it be something worth spending money to try it? In put plz thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey259 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Here's a good rule in business if no one is doing it then there's a 70%-80% chance that it's because it doesn't make sense or the market can't support it. There's a 30%-20% chance that you're a visionary. Stick with what works. There's a reason it's not being used widely in the market and it's not because none of us have thought about it.

GagesVending Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 There are some old machines out there that are designed to sell the "fun sized" candy bars. I haven't seen any in awhile, but they work similarly to the peppermint patty machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orsd Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 And those are usually crap, quality and design wise Plus there set up for old fun sized bars which are different from today's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 And you'd need a very cool location since the machine itself is not refrigerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trim2008 Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 That works for me I believe ill pass on that idea. thanks much I appriciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodney69 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I used to know someone that put the fun size bars in a 1.3 cap and vended them from Uturns. He did well, BUT!!!! it is very time consuming and by the time you figure your time in and all the work you have to do, you will lose money. I count my time valuable. If your trying to take over a location and run out competition it might work, but you would have to low ball it and then it's a matter of if it's worth it. For me it's not.

trim2008 Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 I agree time is money and it seems that it is not worth it after reading posts thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spragues Vending Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 We have a couple that are for sale here in Ohio. They don't seem to be to popular and they have been voted one of the worst machines. http://reliable-vendor.com/bulk-vending-machines/reviews/performas-top-10-worst-vending-machines-part-2/1750 http://cleveland.craigslist.org/bfs/4442568977.html http://cleveland.craigslist.org/for/4433686202.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
