Grazing Hippo Vending Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Has anyone had any success locating in seasonal tax establishments such as H&R Block or Liberty? I am thinking about trying to place some bulk or honor at these places before the big tax filing rush. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlock Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I think this is a great idea for equipment in storage. Better it earn something for you over the next several months that just sit in storage gathering dust. Those places are awfully busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grazing Hippo Vending Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 Comes up every year. Look back at the post I think I made a similar post near the end of last tax season. Im wondering if there are any new points of view from anyone new to the forum OR if any veteran forum members have any new opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havending Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 To be honest I don't really see how much an HR block type location could change. Ever since the quick refund options came about in the 90s these places have been popping up everywhere. They cater to folks who are getting a fast large tax check. And in most cases they get back far more than they pay. So they really are the target audience for bulk. Only change i see is more people moving to doing there own online as it's getting more easy to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like that change alone is worth opening up the discussion to new input given that bulk machines in these locations would rely HEAVILY on foot-traffic rather than staff for customers.

Jax Snacks Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Never tried it myself. A double with Runts and Gumballs may do OK if machines are allowed. But I would think a large corporation like that would have policies against vending. Once the word gets out that they are an easy hit, vendors and locators will dump machines and saturate. That usually leads to anti-vending policies with power-hungry regional managers wanting to throw their weight around to remove unwanted vending machines. But if I had machines in storage and the office manager OK's it, then give it a shot, But be prepared to get that phone call with an eviction notice.
