Pringles Vs Sweets

Post by JustCraig »

Generally what do you find sell better Pringles or tubs of sweets? I know it will depend on site etc. but would you rather have 100 sweet towers or 100 Pringles towers? (Hypothetically speaking of course)

Sweet towers - cos its an easier sale to add a Pringles once you have a relationship. And if you had just Pringles you would be visiting too often for the return on the site.

Def sweets, but preferably both, it's knowing your customer. I have some pub sites that that sell very well with Pringles and vice versa. I find the kids go for sweets and adults go for pringles so once again its knowing your customers core market.

So the main problem with Pringles is they sell out too fast? Lol :rofl:

I plan on operating both but just curious on people's thoughts.

Might invest in a couple and see how they do.

Thanks for the replies guys :thumbup:

u can take a couple pringles machines off me, will do u a good deal.

Pringles are great for securing your position in a site, its a lot of extra commission as they do empty quickly, so whereas you still make the money on the sweet tower the site is alot happier because they get a load of cash each time you visit. and if you dont do it, another operator will come in with a pringles machine and may eventually push you out of the site if u don't have a strong relationship with it. if you buy the stock when its on offer u can make good money, if u don't you're just making the site happy. i always seem to miss the offers myself lol

There is no rivalry between the two, they are compatible with each other, do both. If you do one, you are loosing out by not doing the other.
