Toys in Towers

Post by popp665 »

At the moment I sell tubz vending toys through my towers, they sell very well but the quality and mix are getting worse so would like to mix them with some slightly better quality stuff as well. As far as I know there is only tubz vending who supply pre filled pots with toys in. Unless anyone knows anyone else?

If not im thinking of self filling.

Im not Luke! ;-)

Its Jon and yes Paul normally does normally deal with my account, dont worry I still intend to order toys from you but was going to go and order the odd box of "premium" toys to boost sales as you have to admit even though they sell well yours are not the best in terms of quality.....

Will mention it to Paul next time I call but dont want him to be wasting his time sifting through hundreds of boxes of toys!

Think you said the above just to make him do some more work!! Send him my regards, he looks after me well.

My biggest selling product(even better than skittles/minstrels)is a 43mm bouncy ball with a 5p haribo bag in.They are always sold out in every site they are in.
It only costs me 26p to fill a pot aswell.

food for thought, we can bring balls in from china for 9p ish so would be roughly 18p for a £1 return.Nice.

The best balls are the 45mm balls in florescent colours(pink yellow orange green)they sell the best but midland vend not been able to get them lately due to oil prices shooting up.
So I am now using the 43mm which do not stand out aswell in a pot but they do still sell well.

If 45mm toys are selling well, why not put in a 3Lwonder(or similar) machine? You will then have the benefit of increased capacity and no extra packaging cost, lower your cost to 9p per ball, sell out at either 50p or £1. You will increase your sales turnover, by separating toys from snacks, problem with towers is the low capacity.
