Cheers dudes. Keep em coming.
One other q. Do you guys actually use the vending or do you bring your own drinks and snacks into work?

My store uses prepaid cards in their vending machines, this imo kills the trade from them over cash as alot of people need to borrow cards etc so can't impulse buy shit

Company size: 80 staff (At particular branch, company employees 2,500)
Type of company: Retail (DIY, Electricals, Housewares, Garden etc)
Location: Doncaster (South Yorkshire)
What vending: 2 Coca-cola can vending machines (Fanta, coke, diet coke, sprite etc) 60p per can- Usually rips you off with change
Plus 1 machine that dispenses coffee, tea, hot chocolate, soup etc 25p - Which is usually out of order
I usually either bring my own drink or just buy a can of pop from the actual tills as they are 5p cheaper  Plus I usually prefer to just drink water.
Dont know if you need to know this, but I'd say most of the staff bring their own lunch.
