Librarians are constantly being hit up for free office supplies. Apparently, because we lend books and stuff, everything else in the building must be fair game as well. When refused, the patron becomes angry at the library's perceived cheapness. After all, one pen or a few paper clips isn't going to bankrupt the place. They're taxpayers, you know.
Of course, this line of patron logic fails to take into account the fact that 100+ people a day ask for the same materials. It adds up. Fast. And every box of markers "lent" and staples that are "borrowed" means fewer funds for books and stuff. If the real costs were ever added up, the library board would pitch a major fit.
Well, here at Gouger we have added these costs up. After we finished our fit, we designed a wondrous solution. Make some money instead with the Adios Moochachos Vending Machine. Just stock this easy-to-operate machine with all your patron's stationery needs. There's plenty of room for notebooks, mini staplers, full-size pencils, tape, and so much more. You choose the inventory and set the prices. It's win-win.
Turn this maddening minus into a money-making plus today. We promise it will pay for itself with 6 months. That's the famous Gouger Guarantee.
