How to share/secur common (food) items in a house hack situation?
Hi BP community,
My friend is doing a house hack in southern California and was wondering if there was a good way to share/secure common items that could be shareable. For example, there is a Keurig coffee machine - should they share the cost of the coffee pods via an honor system jar? (e.g., each tenant promises to put $0.50 in the jar each time they use a cup).
Is there some sort of small "vending machine" that would accept quarters and drop out the Keurig cups? Or should some easily common shareable stuff not be shared at all? I can easily see people abusing an honor system. Thanks in advance for any ideas!
