I.m facing the same delimna. Don't forget that you're paying the sales tax on anything you sell - 8.25 to 9.25%. That being said you almost have to charge a buck on the snack items. If they don't sell that well stock less - don't forget about the expire dates. You can sell sodas for 75 cents and pay the tax because they only cost 25 cents - they also have a longer shelf life.

This sounds like a great product for the European market because Europe uses 240volt electrical systems. While 240 volts is present in almost all buildings built in the U.S. in the last 50 years, you won't find any spare 240 volt outlets to simply plug into. Having been raised in electrical construction, I can tell you that just providing power to your chosen location will start at about $500 ($250 euro)and could go much higher in price depending upon how far away your power source is from your machine location. The voltage you will find available here is 120v and I doubt you could run a freezer or an oven on that, much less both.

This product would probably do well in lunch rooms here as Americans eat a lot of pizza but your installation costs will prove a challenge.
