    vac motors

    I wonder if that has something to do with following the instructions for properly seating the brusshes at one half the voltage?

    Our car washes and children's future must be saved.

    Not everyone agrees with me 100% but ... I am trying to do my part to include the below on several written ads.:) I also agree with CFCW & the other posters so far. Minnesota is somewhat of a swing state so hopefully it will do some good...

    Pex Tubing repair in concrete slab

    Rob, How old is existing PEX tubing? Did you check for where & how brittle it is? That could be a factor on the type of connector & how much length you actually should replace ... I would think. ToFarGone, Did the contractor or you use an attachment to a Bobcat or other skidsteer? We...

    Secure Coin

    Wally, I don't have any but if you can share with us your positive experience with them ... it could be helpful ... since it is possible that we might be interested in a very large number of their short drop versions. If I remember right they had some temporary??? issues for awhile when they...

    3. Going 100% cashless could help some both for inside & outside job thefts but it will do nothing for mindless vandalism. No need to repeat that some CC can increase volume because ... if totally cashless ... the traffic could go the other way since there will always be a percentage of...

    Twodose, Randy & others, I think we all have had the destruction of our property for whatever reason ... carelessness or whatever. We keep several of every size of Alaskan Polycarbonate door panels & rails on hand because of that issue that milder climate areas do not have. Some years that...

    continued from last post The vulnerability argument is not acknowledging that there are issues with cashless that may never be resolved. As far as the original poster with the in the wall flush & non flush of Earl's bill acceptor there is also an evolving non cyberspace law enforcement &...

    My Friend Mr I.B., I couldn't agree more in terms of universal acceptance for whatever payment method. We have a more diversified operation than many here even though we focused more on our 6 self service car wash bays rather than putting in an IBA. For example, washers, dryers, extractors...

    Earl, You might have a point with the smart phone interface ... when & if they become used widespread across the USA specifically for our sometimes very diversified facilities. I have plenty of credible evidence that coins in general are recycled. It will be interesting to see your evidence...

    New CC sales scenario

    My friend Big Leo, Thanks for the support ... I do appreciate it. You also made some very good points along with TXHEAT in terms of the market (voting by feet) is no longer functional if our Constitutions are not followed properly law enforcement wise. The greater point that I was trying to...

    New CC sales scenario

    My friend Mep001, Sorry, I was not thorough enough in my description. There is a difference between a "Tailor Made Grace Period" & what you & Big Leo describe. When the customer has the 60 seconds available to put in a golden dollar coin, he or she can have the time clock stopped at that...

    Scout, I agree if the general public observes specific car washes & car washes in general as being wasteful & non environmentally friendly ... it could affect usage patterns. When we show that the less water consumed vs home washing hopefully reflects value & reaches that percentage of people...

    I liked it when Misty May & Kerry were interviewed immediately after winning the GOLD & Misty gushed about Kerry not just as a friend & athlete but also as being a great mother & wife. To see the below live with several customers in our laundromat was a great experience...

    New CC sales scenario

    Txheat, Thanks for reminding our friends about net income vs the gross. A slight gain in convenience without considering tradeoffs such as more hardware etc to maintain & other overlooked subtleties. You raise a very good point about the ethics factor. We should be concerned about losing any...

    New CC sales scenario

    Jimmy & others, By encouraging them to make a few extra steps the customer might be more likely to be in better proximity of vend items you need to turnover because of it. Besides, the slight few yards extra walking can be a healthy thing for your customer ... from my observations. Remember...

    New CC sales scenario

    Jimmy Buffett, Great idea. It would mean that there is a future possiblity for ATMs that would allow a choice of coins, tokens &/or $5 bills. In our case, our almost a year & a half old ATM just gives out $5 dollar bills. No hesitation from people ... even though there could be a surcharge...

    I been giving people strict instructions that they can help avoid getting a heart attack with the heathy exercise of a wand style vs the sit in car & get fatter autowashes:) Methinks I need a better way than just one on one!
