I needed to find a way to help my 10 yr old son become more interested in math, etc. for school. Its the subject he hates the most. I purchased a double headed gumball machine in order for him to have a small business, which I feel would be a great learning tool for him.

He will be the one who owns this machine, collects the quarters, restocks the products, and handle all the business aspects of it. I of course will bring him around to refill it, and help him etc.

If you have an office, business, etc with some foot traffic near Reynoldsburg, OH let me know. You can email me at shawn.augustson@us.army.mil

The machine is not very big and does not take up much space. See photo.

Great job dad! If I had an office, I would definitely let you put the machine in it! A+

try laundromats.  I used to have a few of them and we would take a 30-50% split

What a great Dad....he's a lucky kid.....I have a friend who owns maybe a dozen or two of those 6ft gumball machines... He has them in restaurants lik Big Boys etc.  I am pretty sure he just walked in and talked to the manger and they let him put them in there for a cut of the profit.

A+ What a great story.


I think if you went into a few offices with that story, you would find  a home for it real quick.
