Hi friends,
This may be old news, but it was new to me, so I thought I'd pass it along. I was pleasantly surprised to see Bag-In-A-box at Sam's Club the other day. I snapped the photo with my Treo 650 smartphone.

Is that a bag of syrup in a box...?

BIB (Bag-in-Box) is soda-syrup use in post- mix type soda-fountians at Mcdonalds, & all your other fast food joints & gas sations, quicky-marts, etc. as opposed to Pre-mix (stainless steel Tanks) FYI '> |

Well I happened to be near that Sam's Club today, so I swung in to see how many gallons of syrup the box holds and it is 5 gallons!! People with post-mix soda fountains (like mine) often unsuccessfully talk their local Coca-Cola bottler into selling syrup to them, so this is cool.
On the shelf in the photo, they had:
Coke
Diet Coke
Sprite
Barq's rootbeer
Vanilla Coke
Mello Yellow
and even that cherry flavor that is for making those frozen Cherry Cokes!
Pretty cool!
Here's my machine:

The only problem is I think you have to be a dealer or have a vending license to buy the syrup from Sams. I thought about buying a soda machine one once for my apartment when I lived in FL because my place is where everyone hung out. They told me that they wouldn't sell it to me. Oh well that is when I bought my first machine.

Thanks Creighton, it feels good to finally run with you big dogs.
Never thought of the wine route! I have no idea. Interesting thought though.
As you could probably see from the photo, mine is in the "lobby" of my large dedicated home theater.

Thanks Adam.
By the way, how did you get the access to a license?

Hi Kito,
Great info Thanks much!!
Have some reading to do :-). Part of a very long ago job was to keep a popcorn machine just like that humming. Great fun.
