Used to put a large bin onto a trolley filled with ice and sell ice cold tins of drink outside silverstone racetrack, back in the days when it used to get really hot. Used to make several hundred quid a day, cans cost 10p each and sold them for £1 each, that was when I was seven, over 39yrs ago.

How time flies.

I take it you've converted the prices to todays money .

Great idea by the way.
