Go ahead and help yourself. The drinks are on the Chiams.
“The first idea was to have a drinks fridge at the gate, but we met with significant difficulty trying to customise a shelter for it,” he continued.
“A vending machine made sense because it could handle the outdoor environment and keep drinks cold. And thus @tyvmdrinks was born as a project at home.”From the sounds of it, the whole Chiam family was roped in. “Son #1 popped open a gdoc and inked first ideas and key considerations. The logo and vending machine sticker were designed by son #2 using Canva. Daughter is in charge of IG posts, copy and likes. Mommy orders the drinks and old man me agreed to seed the project.
The vending machine has been a hit, going by Chiam’s account. “We did well! A total of 637 drinks were dispensed during our first month of operations, yielding a daily average of 21 cans. Green tea and 100 Plus were clear favourites, and nobody liked hojicha haha.”The TYVMDrinks project has reaped the Chiams some great family bonding time as well.
“The best part of the project is the time spent with the kids topping up drinks. Whilst simple and mindless, it was compact good fun always. We learnt that a well patronised vending machine needs tops ups twice a week,” he wrote.The Singapore Post Ltd postman and Sembcorp Industries Ltd refuse truck guys use it daily," Chiam wrote."The Grab and Lalamove guys were in two camps, some took the drinks but others were in too much of a hurry to notice its presence.
