Can some one please help me find a new key for cheap and/or open it to refill candy and close it again. it is a blue 25 cent rocky mountain mint machine like the one in the picture.

Answer 1

You can take the gumball machine to a local lock smith. They can make you more than one key.

Answer 2

Look in the Yellow Pages for vending machine repair, or Google it for your town (or you will get many results that are useless).



As for the cost - expect to pay whatever it costs. I saw a sign in an auto body shop a long time ago and have never forgotten it. It applies to anything related to a skilled service. This is prefaced by the idea that you do want the job done correctly, right?



If you want it good and cheap, it won't be fast.
