POPCORN VENDING SCAMS!!

There are many scams with vending machines and particularly with popcorn vending machine suppliers. Promises are made of great riches to be made by investing in popcorn vending machines. There are a few questions you should be asking about popcorn vending machines before you buy them for route operation purposes. First, you should want to know that the machine is totally automated. The less the consumer has to do at the vending machine ... the better. For example, insert coin and press the button....that is it! The second question you should be asking concerns the rest of the transaction for the consumer after starting the vend process. Is the popcorn vending machine 100% self contained?         If the consumer selects the item they want from the         popcorn machine but also has to insert the paper bag         and then wait till the popcorn is popped and then add         the salt, butter and then determine what other items         are available to add to the popcorn before concluding         the purchase . . . . it will complicate the purchase. When the cups, salt, butter, sugar and other complimenting condiments are available near to the machine, other people will frequently help themselves to the items that appear to be free, which in turn causes a dilemma for the consumer who is paying for the popcorn and discovers that cups are depleted or the butter is empty. Most important is the sanitation of the product and the handling of these items by the general public. It is difficult to keep these areas sanitary when everyone has access to the butter, salt, cups etc...etc.. There is a time and place for certain types of popcorn vending machines.
