Re: Corona Virus
Its started to effect business. Visited a care home today. Normally worth £50 every 5 weeks. Door lockd no entry, no visitors to relatives. Apparently their interpretation of govt guidlines.
Next site play barn. There were maybe 5-10 kids in there, 4 cars outside. Norrmlally 50-60 kids and you cant park. Monthly take there was down at least £250.
And its only going to get worse.
Might have to go back to being a jigalo for the short term.

Re: Corona Virus
LOL Andy, I really wondered what you did before vending especially as you said vending was a better income ROTFL
Although seriously yes you are right, foot fall has decreased and I have a number of care homes and am expecting similar problems when I go round to refill them.
You also have to think about how many bugs are on the towers and handles in high turnover sites, I always have sanitiser with me when out on my round, but my bottle is getting low now, and the chance of getting a refill is Zero.
Everything is going to take a hit, thats for certain.

Re: Corona Virus
With most of my machines in pubs , club and social sites this looks like I will be collecting a fraction of my usual turnover. More worryingly there doesn’t seem to be any real estimation of the length of this proposed social distancing. If it goes on for many months I wonder how many sites will be still be in business when it does finally come to an end!

Re: Corona Virus
Talk about bad timing just as the weather picks up and the takings go up! Crying into a large vodka here. Thankfully my partner has a stable job that should be unaffected by this but it’s going to be a tough few months

Re: Corona Virus
Yes going to hit me hard, April is my highest turnover month for the year so couldn’t have come at a worse time.
I had a language school call me yesterday saying they have gone out of business, I have 3 Pringle towers and 2 sweet towers inside. Unprecedented times we are facing
