Gumball Machine Toys-Adding Toy Capsules to Your Bulk Vending
For the past year and a half I have been converting more and more of my gumball machines to sell toys. One of my most profitable setups is a simple double machine which sells gumballs on one side and toy capsules on the other. It is set up on a single stand with a double bar. Many experienced vendors are doing this, but this is great information for beginners. In a restaurant that does well, you will have a good consistent cash flow which you WILL look forward to collecting each time.
So, gumball machine toys can be very profitable. Some of the profitable toys I have sold are:
- Sticky Mix toys
- Sticky eyeballs
- Bouncy balls (super hi bounce rubber balls, 1" and 2")
- Fuzzy Face Mustaches (1" and 2")
- Mini Aliens
- Glow Crosses
- Tattoos
- Silver / Gold rings
- Spy Mixes
- Heavy Metal mixes
One really important tip I can share with you about finding good toys to sell is to ask the rep at the toy company you call to order bulk vending capsules. They usually get feedback from other operators about what works...and what flops.
Why not think about converting those extra gumball machines in the garage to sell toy capsules? It may be just the thing you need to take your business to the next level.
Best of Success!
