       If someone were to offer you an ENTIRELY FREE bag of M&Ms, how large would the bag have to be before you said no?

       @ColesStreetPothole Depends on where I was and how much time I had to arrange transport logistics.More than 30ish pounds and I'd have trouble carrying it any significant distance by hand unless it had backpack straps or something mounted.More than a cubic meter or so, and I couldn't fit it in my wife's car.More than a TEU and I'd have trouble finding somewhere to store it (and would probably end up selling the majority to retailers while keeping a lifetime supply for myself)

       @azonenberg And don't forget, they are perishable. 🤔 And they have a physical location—as you flood the market from your limitless supply, the value would plummet.

       @ColesStreetPothole Realistically... up to a TEU I would accept, but I'd keep a max of like 10 pounds for myself and resell the remainder.More than a TEU and the logistical headaches would likely make me decline.

       @ColesStreetPothole I feel like a single shipping container of candy is the kind of thing that, if still in sealed manufacturer packaging or otherwise clearly safe and wholesome, i could fairly easily unload to a major wholesaler.Any more than that, nope.

       @azonenberg The TEU doesn't come with refrigeration though. 🤔 Just so you know.

       @ColesStreetPothole I'm sure if I had a TEU of candy as security I could get a loan/lease for a refrigerated container to put them in until I figure out long term disposition.

       @azonenberg It's just one giant bag. It's sealed bag, though. But it's not refrigerated.

       @ColesStreetPothole Sounds easy enough to get a distributor to repackage

       @azonenberg The logistics are important. It's just one giant bag, though. How are you going to get it into the container?

       @ColesStreetPothole oh when i said a TEU i was implying it was already containerized.If not containerized then I'd have to decline anything too large to easily move with a forklift or pallet jack.

       @azonenberg Think so? How are they going to move it? And what's the weather like near you right now? Sunny at all?

       @azonenberg TEU is just a unit of volume. The poll quite clearly says "bag." 😁

       @ColesStreetPothole well in that case, i think me and some friends could (with readily available tools and equipment) move up to about a m^3 bag from the driveway onto a pallet and into a corner of my climate controlled lab until i could arrange a liftgate truck to make it go away.So that's my final answer.

       @ColesStreetPothole but a much larger quantity would be acceptable if no single bag was more than about that size

       @azonenberg One bag is all you get. 😁
