What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Budget's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the cost for an Additional HP USB Mouse is $10.00. This is a one-time hardware cost that a franchisee may incur.
As a prospective franchisee, it's important to factor in these initial hardware costs when planning your startup expenses. While $10.00 for a mouse may seem insignificant, these smaller costs can add up. It is important to note that this is the cost for an additional mouse, so the initial franchise setup may include a mouse, or it may be an additional cost if more than one is needed per terminal.
Budget franchisees should consider the number of terminals they anticipate needing and factor in the cost of peripherals like the HP USB mouse for each terminal to accurately estimate their initial investment. Keeping track of these hardware expenses will help in managing the overall financial health of the franchise.
