ghostridergt Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 How much should I expect to gross from a single 54oz bag of PMM, MM, Skittles, RP, HT etc ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer980 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Well it will depend on your settings. For the most part with a 1/2 oz vend you will gross about $25 as an average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-man422 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Product ½ oz. # 1/3 oz. # ¼ oz. # M&M 17 11 9 PM&M 6 4 3 Reese’s Pieces 17 11 9 Skittles 14 9 7 Hot Tamales& 7 5 4 Mike & Ikes Runts 12 8 6 Good and Plentys 15 10 8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To Calculate Net Per Bag: - Decide the vending size you want to give to your customers from the chart above. Multiply the bag size in ounces by the number of vends per ounce.Example: I want to vend 1/3 oz. portions of M&Ms so I will multiply my bag size by the opposite of my fraction. 56 oz. X 3 = 168 servings per bag. I charge $0.25 per serving so multiply 168 by $0.25 and I get $42 Gross. Now just take away my cost of product ($8.50) and I am left with $33.50 Net. * You will also need to take into account other expenses such as gas, machine repairs, etc. But this is an easy way to see if you are getting the most out of your candy or if you should stop vending a certain type.

G-man422 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 No problem Brian. Hope it is a useful tool for everyone. It's a great way to see if your vend amounts are profitable or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostridergt Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 Thx G-Man that is AWESOME, and according to that formula im TOTALLY not getting the most out of my machines, time to close my wheels a lil bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurtsman Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Just know that closing wheels on a machine you have located already may offend repeat customers and dramatically decrease the number of vends per day. Then again, I'm far stingier with my money than my product because getting 6 PMM would leave me feeling cheated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
