mission vending Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Here is a story from Vending Marketwatch. My link I think that if we see significant increases in costs and have to pass them along it will impact sales. On a related note, had my annual meeting with my Coke rep and will only have a .02 /unit increase on 20 oz carbonated drinks and no increase on noncarbonated. HOWEVER, the pricing is only good through April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillbilly Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I started watching food prices about a year and a half ago. I picked one product that I bought a fair amount of and watched it slowly rise. It was a box of instant oatmeal from Walmart. It used to be .88. It is now 2.16 Thats a little more than the 2% the article states. I'm one of the lucky ones, having a commission sales job. My wages increase as product pricing increases. But my family can still feel our paychecks being strained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
