I had a friend who wanted to start a coin counting by mail business. The customer mails the coins in a flat rate package and then you count them and in exchange the people get a gift card to a local restaurant.

    I was waiting in line to get into a China town bar, NYC. This kid was attempting to pick up a girl with his business idea, perhaps hoping she’d see his true genius, view him as pending-rich and want to marry him. His business idea, a 24/7 dry cleaning delivery service using drones piloted by Mexicans.

      …honestly, you might be able to do something like that with modern autonomous wheeled drones. Have a ‘dark laundry’ that doesn’t have a counter/sales floor. Allow delivery of drycleaning back to the home or business address at specific times so people can schedule it around whatever else they’re doing. Or allow pickup from nearby locations where drones can drop stuff off there to secure storage.
