Vending Machine

Interesting. Funny enough, we have one of his machines at work. Looks impressive and very tempting, but I see hardly anybody using it. I will drink some juice to him on Monday!

I tried a couple of times, quite good.

Plus, no sugar or sweetener, real JUICE.

You can vend clean shirts, clean underwear, under arm deodorant, etc at Four Floors, for those that need to clean themselves up before going home after a night of "entertainment".

Sounds like a fantastic idea! Will look into it as well

Thanks for the advise, do keep them coming. Definitely not adult toys targeted audience are teenagers/ young adults. Which areas got more of them hanging out?

Cinemas, vicinity of Starbucks and such where the bastards occupy tables for hours ordering a single item, void decks of large shopping malls, obviously schools and their vicinities, any shops selling idiotic mobile phone accessories...
Think about things already being sold and targeting them but belonging to a different product group - for examples, outlets selling bubble tee (or whatever is attracting them right now).

Im having the same ideas about bubble tea shop! Especially those infront of schools where students flock around after school hours. I used to hang out at a bubble tea infront of my school as well, wonder if its still there

It's not the locations that are going to be an issue - it's the cost of warehouse space, vehicles and transport that will squeeze you.

Warehouse space should be fine for now since i'll probable dump all the items at my house and i'll be renting machines. Most vending machine company offer free placement of machine so i dont need to worry about that. Transportation is going to be an issue if I have to keep travelling to check on the machine so ultimately location will be an issue? Find somewhere close so I can save on time and transportation

I didn't so far. There is one part I don't get. This is rather an expensive and highly customized machine, yet it except $1 coins only so basically either I would need to leave the building and look around to change some paper money or remember to keep some $1 coins if it happen I buy something paying cash (rather rare occasions).

Edited to add: I just noticed it also accepts $2 note. I had one! Good juice, still a bit weird strategy.

Maybe in time, Cashless payment will be added ??

I too looking for 24/7 dispenser machine. It's dried packet instant drink. Each packet about 600g.
Those already in operation in public places dispensing snacks, wonder is it profitable.
Do share.

And, do go to Stephen Riady Center, NUS, or any university Campus, and you will see how many ready to eat Vending machines already operating !!!

Including food !!

600g, a dried packet instant drink? Is it for poultry?

Open Packet,
put contents in mouth,
pour water into mouth,
if no water available,
put contents from mount back into packet,
go look for water,
find another vending machine with water,
get water bottle, throw away dried drink,
get another dried drink,
consider if it's a good idea to put the contents of the dried drink into water bottle or let them mix in the tummy,
decide to pre-mix,
put the powder into water bottle,
water bottle over flows,
see NEA guy seeing your littering,
pretend it was an accident,
then start making a scene to avoid paying fine ..

Or get a liquid drink

Instant water... bag of hydrogen, bag of oxygen... light on fire... presto! Instant water.
