M&M's Plain Milk Chocolate Candy 3.5 lb. Bag - Click Here To Buy!
In 1941, American GI’s serving in WWII were introduced to what were soon to be America’s favorite candy coated chocolates.
When M&M’s first came out, they were packaged in cardboard tubes. In 1948, the packaging was changed to what we know as the little brown bags today.
In 1950, the very first “M” was printed in black. It gave them their unique trademark and was eventually changed to white.
Over the next couple years, the Peanut M&M was finally introduced and in 1954, the tagline: “Melts in your mouth, not in your hands” was born.
During that same time, the world famous M&M’s characters made their TV debut.
M&M’s were finally introduced internationally in 1980 and have been an American classic/favorite ever since.

Where did the name Mike and Ike come from? One of the rumors swirling around the name is that there was a company-wide contest or another theory is that the name came from a 1937 song titled “Mike and Ike (The Twins)” or possibly that it came from a vaudeville act “Mike and Ike, We’re Just Alike”.

There are some other things you should be aware as well, you need to be dedicated. You must have a good attitude and treat the business like any other business. Although start-up cost is low, you should calculate the total cost to start your vending business: from buying vending machines, products to vend, paying for space to place your machine, hiring a vending operator (if necessary), etc. Also you should determine how much you are willing to invest so that you can make a better plan of the size you want your business to be.
In order to choose the best locations to place your vending machines, you have to do some research as to whether the location is well populated, whether there have been similar vending machines with the same products, and what are your competitive advantages in that location.

NFL Football 45mm Vending Bouncy Balls - Click Here To Buy!
It’s just about that time of year when National Football League fans can’t think or talk about anything else but who is going to win the Super Bowl. And when you talk about the NFL you’re talking about millions of fans of all ages.
With that in mind, candymachines.com has gathered together some of the most unique NFL items you’ll ever find to give out to friends at your Super Bowl party, and for vending machine owners to load their machines.

SuperPro Combo Toy Vendor Machines - Click Here To Buy!
Increasing profit in your Bulk Vending business can be easy with these simple steps. Don’t overlook their importance even though they sound simple. These steps will work to put more money in your pocket and increase your residual income:
Put out all of your Vending Machines – Most vendors I know have several machines in storage (usually several dozen). The more machines you have in the field the better your asset will work to add money to your pockets! Putting out more machines sounds simple, but this is a huge point. Get those machines out of storage and get rid of that 0% return on your investments!
Evaluate Your Route - Pull the lowest 10-20% of your machines and redeploy them in brand new accounts. Some of those machines may bring in $30, $50, or $100 per servicing.
Change Your Product – Try a different candy. Change the gum to a candy choice. Try toys instead of gum or candy if it is a place frequented by children.
Find Out What The Employees Like – Don’t assume you know what they like. Ask them! It only takes one or two people to support a machine and make it a good "bread and butter" account. Better to salvage an account by changing product than having to go out and find a new one.
I hope these tips make your 2010 vending year a much more successful one!

Tractor Time Crane Vending Machine - Click Here To Buy!
While vending machines come in all shapes, sizes and for many different purposes, one of the most popular with children is the crane vending machine. This is often called a toy vending machine or a claw vending machine. The purpose of these machines is to allow someone to put coins in them and then to use a guided claw to try to get one of the toys out of the machine. These are commonly found at movie theatres, arcades, restaurants, and grocery stores. A crane vending machine draws a lot of attention from children who soon become frustrated when they are unable to win a prize the first time. Because of the challenge involved, many customers pay more than once while trying to win a prize.
