$19.00 each. How many heads? Are they new? That sound unbelievable. How / where find you find that deal?

I bought 125 Vendstar 3000 machines for a little under $19.00 each! All but three work and are in order. I now have 3 extra machines along with parts and keys to everything. I'm pumped to get started.
I was wondering about the best way to purchase bulk candy for the machines. I am interested in M&M Peanuts, M&M Plain, Mike and Ike, Reeses Pieces, Gumballs and Chicklets. Perhaps cashews and peanuts as well. What and where is the best place to buy candy in bulk? What size bags are best? What type of price will I need to pay for a large bag of candy? Is it best to find someone nearby and buy direct or is buying on-line a good way? There are no bulk candy suppliers in my town. We have Sam's Club, is this a good place?? Thanks for your help in advance.

I have purchased peel and stick stickers that display the candy colors and logos. I have begun the process to get my charity up and running. I have gotten a year's worth of insurance. I will place 20 machines with a locator and then try to place the others myself. I will keep 30 o 40 machines wihout a charity sponsor just in case I need to give a location a cut. Am I doing this correctly?

I'm brand new to this. Had a locator put out 30 machines and now wonder what city / state guidlines I must follow. Can anyone give me a website to find out about laws governing New York City / State and candy vending machines? thanks a lot.
