It won't affect sales because some parents don't like their kids eating sweets before their tea etc and so will buy their kids a toy, if you want to make it more affordable put a 2 head 20p bulk toy mc nxt to ur sweet tower thn they can have sweets and a toy for £1.20. I've got many pubs wiv a sweet tower, Pringles and £1 toy mc in same site and they do really well together as it offers a wider choice. If you got 3 diff mcs in a decent site you should be taking £100 plus a mnth.

Hi Rich, what products sell well for you in a F2 machines? if you have any. ie 20p 27mm capsule and 50p bouncy ball 45mm. I want to mix 45mm bouncy balls with capsules if possible in that machine but don't have any experience of which capsules to put in, also thinking of upgrading the 50p coin mech to £1 depending on the capsule products etc. Any advice on that appreciated. I have tried mixing 45mm balls with flashing balls in another machine I have and that seems to work. I think it is better to mix the balls cause the kids want them but the pub doesn't if you see what I mean.

My other new machines are seeming to be doing well initially. I have cartoon mix now in my 20p bulks mixed with 27mm balls.

Regards,
Simon.

Remember mixing half of 27mm and half of 32 mm by volume sells well and you dont have any bridging problems.
Trolls and 3 D clay in capsules still good.

Ok, Would you think 50p is too high then? I was going to try the F2 with a £1 vend of mixed 45mm balls and 50mm capsules and 50p in the other side with the suggested mix. Thanks,Simon.

Most people vend 27mm or 32 mm high balls at 20p. The kids want the larger 32mm ball and will put in a couple of 20ps to get one. The mix gives a good profit as the 27mm balls are cheaper. The mix also reduces bridging/ sticking especially during hot/sunny weather .You may get more for the 45mm ball---i dont sell them so cant really say.
