Years and years ago we had this and it was an inventory nightmare.

Megan Goodmundson thanks for the feedback. To clarify, was it a nightmare to do the vendor, the team, theft, expectations?

Lindsay Schlatter oh we didnt have a vendor. This was many years ago. We just tried to manage it ourselves. I dont have any feedback using a vendor though that would be interesting

Lindsay, are you talking about one of new vending machine options out there, or more like an off-the-shelf system?

Brent Williams hi! Just exploring ideas. From butter, to milk, toilet paper, travel size laundry soap, etc.

Lindsay I think the biggest question is what point of sale system would be used. Hotels/motels have had things like this for years, so it probably has merit, but unless it is a vending machine, I wonder how the checkout process would go.
As I think about this, it would be interesting if the charge could just be added to the rent for convenience sake, so there is no point of sale in that sense.
