Valentine's Day is over, so it is now time to start searching for soda vending locations again. I helped prepare a wonderful banquet for the couples in our church. That took up all of last week.
Also, the temperatures are a balmy 70 degrees this week. The last two weeks we have had snow and ice. The schools were out 4 days and then one day. Besides making it difficult for stocking the machines, the snow days actually ended up being fairly profitable. I suppose that everyone was trapped at home and needed their soda. I only had one machine problem related to the snow. The heater didn't work on my multi-priced bottle machine. The sodas seemed to make it through the cold OK. No one has complained. I should have opened a soda to make sure it wasn't flat.
This week was recovery from last week. I ended up with a sinus/ear infection and a broken filling on one of my teeth that had to be taken care of.
Now I don't have any more excuses not to contact some of the prospective locations again. Out of 68 apartment complexes that I originally contacted, there are 16 that have not said no outright. I will continue to work on them until they take my machines, or tell me NO.
