Hi everyone. My sister owns a business and is redecorating her bathrooms. Does anyone know where she can get a sanitary napkin dispenser at a normal price? The ones that she looked at cost her over $300.00. She can't find anything cheaper and that seems a little excessive. Any ideas? Thank you.
 
Interesting question...If there was an award for posting a truly original never before asked question, I bet you'd win! Way to liven up the boards.:thumbsup2


Seriously though, my first thought is, Does she really feel that she needs one? I'm trying to think of the last time I was in a restroom that had one and I've never in my life used one. Basically, I'm thinking that they are becoming pretty rare and obselete.

What kind of business is it?

A quick Google Shopping search brought up a couple under $300, but I think that's as low as you'll find. The ones at Grainger were $300 - $600.
 
Depending on the type of business, would she be opposed to just keeping a basket in the restroom with a few necessities? I would guess that she would not have to put the entire package in the basket, but just a few each day and replace as needed. Just a suggestion. I agree with the PP, I have never used on of these dispensers, but if needed, I would grab one out of a basket.

agree
 
Ditto pp's... The only time I've ever used a dispenser was at my old job - and they were free (my company rigged the machine so you just had to pull the knob to get what you needed) ... But I would take one from a basket if needed. Of course it does depend on what kind of business. I bet a bar would see more of a need for something like that than a store, kwim?

I just have to ask - how in the world do you know that $300 is excessive and how do you know what the "normal" price of an item like that is?

And why in the world would you think anyone on the DIS would have any useful information about this? Do you think we all vacation at WDW to get away from our demanding jobs in the sanitary napkin dispenser industry?

:rotfl:I'm just floored that you would ask this!
 
This is hilarious but believe it or not my brother just got a job with a company that goes into failed businesses and buys their equipment and auctions it off.

fasttrackauction.com

I just sent him a message and asked if they resold these, he said yes and please put the info out there.

I don't know how to find it on there, haven't looked (no need for me to look). If you need help, let me know and I can give you his email and I'm sure he would be happy to help.


Seriously this is funny though.:rotfl2:

:rotfl::rotfl:Well, there you go - I stand corrected!:rotfl::rotfl:
 
actually I'm glad I finally looked. There is some neat stuff on there that my hubby could probably use for work. I found those things they use to move stock, motorized ones (cannot think of the name). I know they were looking for a cherry picker. So I'm looking. Wow, interesting stuff.
 
:lmao: I completely missed the sister "owning her own business" part of the question and thought she wanted one for her bathroom at home.

Same here! I was thinking, why does she not just stick the box in the cabinet under the bathroom sink like the rest of us? :laughing:
 
I am thinking $300 is the "normal price" for these dispensers. Its probably not an item that they put "on sale."
 
Just popping in to say, with 2 teenage daughters who occasionally get caught unprepared.. I'm VERY thankful that some restrooms still have these machines!

LMFAO!!!!! :rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:
