[QUOTE=Redswandir;44003990]I guess it's time for yet another one of my shitty high school stories, doesn't really involve me though, as all but one of the publicly available vending machines were utter shit (and they moved it around sometimes??? idk why school logic) and would I swear to god eat your money/vend the wrong thing/get stuck, and the good one had a busted corner on the bottom iirc, so we went around looking for it once and we came across someone who 'got scammed' outta money getting in a fight with someone over the shitty crustless pb&j's that CLEARLY got stuck by a tiny sliver with the fucking principal right there to open it in cases like these. They fight, we can't get chips, another food fight, we head to the machine, start inputting money to get chips, a food fight starts right next to us and we have to put money in from around the side of the machine. The kicker was that they were out of all the baked shit, so it wasn't even worth it.
Long story short fuck vending machines, they robbed my family dry[/QUOTE]
I'm not entirely sure what this post is about. All I got was food fights and Vending machines eating money.
At our school, kind of a different problem. The machine doesn't accept your money no matter what, even if its a new bill and crispy and everything, just bzzt...bzzt and it spits it back out
TAKE MY MONEY DAMN YOU
[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;43998722]When are we going to get candy vending machines that don't suck?[/QUOTE]
There are some. You get ones that are like a load of stacks of rotating shelves, segmented vertically into components. You rotate the thing until the shelf you want is in place, put in the money, press the button on the level you want, then can open the door to one of the components, take the sweets out, and close it.
Was murder to find an image, but here.

There's another type for soft drinks, but it works by sending up a little holder, the drink gets pushed into it whilst still being upright, then it brings the drink down carefully to the collection point, which helps avoid the drink being shaken.
Back in high school some of us knew the maintenance code for the vending machine.
That would be funny if twix used this story as material for a TV commercial.
I would have done the same thing.

I used to know that and the codes to reprogram the prices
God damn it, Otis.
