I think I have a great solution to the bouncy ball problem. My kids love the ball machine at Little Ceasar’s. I’d like to suggest a solution: instead of bouncy balls, Little Ceasar’s could switch to gum balls.

They can be ordered in the same size, so the machine will not have to be retro-fitted. They can also be ordered with custom printing, so they can continue to offer their free crazy bread promotion: www.gumball.com/custom-printed-gumballs.aspx (I’d also like to add that I am in no way affiliated with gumball.com. It came up when I did a quick internet search.)

I, for one, would be very supportive of the switch. The bouncy balls turn up all over my house and they are annoying. I’m much more likely to fork over a quarter for a gum ball.
