Is the overall pricing fair?
- When you walk into 7-11 you pay $1.19 for inferior water that they pay more for wholesale than you do.
- For less than the price per piece of a mailer that the customer looks at for only 2.5 seconds on average if they see it all; you can have every customer you give a bottle of water to look at it for minutes as they drink it and they all do!

- Divide that by: (choose one)
- 2016 for 12oz
- 1728 for 16.9oz. / .5 Liter

- This equals how many pallets per year you will need
- Divide by 12 and to see how often to re-order.
How much should I keep on hand?
Reorder when you get down to 1-months supply. Always have twice as much as you need on hand. Re-orders are delivered in 7-10 working days. Deliveries are a pallet at a time.
