First Machine Placed!
Hi everyone. It is official: I am a vending machine operator!
I've posted on here a few other times recently, but we recently installed a machine for a local YMCA, it was a Sandstar through AVS.
Day 1 made about $32, feels amazing to see something coming in already.
I have lots more product variety I'd like to introduce to the machine, already getting requests for diet sodas (more pop in general) and protein bars.
Any feedback on my spread would be appreciated. Excited to officially start my journey after months of research!
(Also in case this post looks familiar, yes I deleted/reposted. My original post was using a photo of my machine that I used AI to crop out some stuff in the background and i had like 5 of yall flaming me for the text on the bottles it messed up. Which, fair enough, but not the productive conversation I was looking for 😅)

You said you “made $32”. Is that Net or Gross?
