Securing a spot for my "future" coffee cart

[topher]

Oh snap.. did slurp just break a cardinal rule? No sales pitches.

I did not sell pitch anything. We all know you taught me how to roast and now have surpassed my training lol. Just kidding please do not ban me mr mod.

At least I am not offering discount codes for m website like others ha ha ha.

On a serious note Topher is one of the best people I have ever met in the coffee business or any other, we are lucky here on the forums to have you.

Topher forgot more about coffee than I know.

I would never ban you. .i still need to come by so we can taste the espresso tonic. . Side note you made me blush

Slurp - Oh wow, I had know idea! Your right, I think I'd rather pay the utility bill!

Rose - No. The cart will stay there all night. Supposedly, the plug is able to with stand all of the juice from the cart. But I sort of find that hard to believe, because it's a small plug!

Considering the cost of a generator and the gasoline that you'd need to keep on hand for it, I was wondering how secure your cart set-up would be. Some people like to help themselves to other people's stuff, and a generator would be a huge temptation.

Slurp,

Mr. Mod won't ban you, but you gotta watch out for Ms. Mod (me).

By the way, I totally agreed with you when you said Topher is "one of the best people I have ever met in the coffee business or any other." We're very lucky to have him here on the Coffee Forums.

Keep in mind that you, too, can offer discount codes, but be sure to do it in the Deals and Specials area of the Forum.

So hey everyone, it turned out that the deal did not go through. What a bummer.

Apparently the property manager does not want a cart anymore in the lobby, because their preparing to build a restaurant in the space next to where the cart was.

Oh well. So I'm on the hunt for buying a coffee cart with the equipment now.

Have you ever considered getting a coffee truck/van instead?

This guy keeps bringing his price down.

I'm new the the forum as well, and am in Northern California. All the comments have been so helpful and true. I'm a mobile business and I'm always thinking about power. I have the Honda Parallel system totaling 4000 watts. You might want to try area hospitals to see if there's any opportunity. And I also agree with the truck comment. I'm looking for one as well. I have a 750 pound cart and I'm getting tired of winching it in and out of my trailer! Good Luck!!
