    Need some advice

    I have a fragramatics shampoo machine, but it only gets $100 for the whole summer. Have you thought about a really good vending Machine? A 50 selection unit should be able to bring in at least $1000 a month. Maybe some credit card or bill acceptance would help also.

    Whadda ya think ....

    People are not very good at math and the free minutes may confuse them. you may think about leaving that off. The extra dollar from 3-4 shows the time doubling. I think maybe something about 4min for every bonus dollar. leaving off all the min and secs. not to confuse them. Keep it simple as...

    J E Adams Vacs and Imonex
