JLM Vending Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I just got a couple of machines from A&A and i have a bunch of bouncy balls. Curious to see how this version of vending performs. So do you mainly just put them in kiddy restaurants? What other types of spots do you typically find for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyinchville Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 HI, Typically, I've seen toy bulk type machines in grocery stores...Although, I have never done it (or seen it for that matter), If you can get some bulk machines into a day care facility I would think that would be a good location for that. Hope this helps. Andrew PS - Try dollar type stores too....I am new to bulk but since I supply Hostess to a local dollar store they will let me put in bulk machines on a commission basis....I just bought 10 machines and need to spruce them up before placing them there (not all 10 tho maybe 2 or 3).

Hillbilly Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Any place that has a bunch of kids. Or at least kid traffic. I have a C store right between 2 schools. It rocks. I also have one where the kids catch the bus . It does well too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havending Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I would assume racks are already in all the C stores though Don't assume get out there and start looking and locating. Load the machines up and don't return until they are placed. Check Chinese places, pizza places, c stores, dollar or retail stores.

MrGranger Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Family restaurants are great, but I've found that some licensed toys do really well in more adult frequented places like Sports Bars. Toys are great anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 havending is right. Just load them up and go. Best way to do it. I know a guy that got 5 new locations in one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Coast Vend LLC Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Every place that has families, kids and plenty of them will do great with toys! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLM Vending Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Just found two spots for my 2 machines. They were right next door to each other. One is a yogurt parlor and the other is a chinese place. Didn't seem like there was an enormous amount of traffic but then again, they are not in the middle of nowhere.

West Coast Vend LLC Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Good luck your new locations. Make sure you put different stuff in each since they are right next to each other. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinese places typically do good.........Or so I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
