crisps are bulky but nuts and scratchings are fine. how much are you paying for scratchings. We generally make £2 a card, 10 cards in a normal sized box. £20 profit per box. Not much different to a sweet box.

Did the scratching lark and made a few quid. As a pub going man i used to sell to all my local pubs. But they would ring me up and ask me to deliver say maybe 3 bags of scatchings were i would make say £6 Then i would precead to spend it all in beer and walddle of home in a taxi. The everning was not so profitable then.

Sell by dates are a bit short on scratchings and they take all the room up in your van
