I lost 75 cents in one today. Cocksucking fucking M&M's didn't fall. The thing spun and they were so close, and I banged the shit out of it, shook it, everything. To top it off, I spent my last single in the machine, so I had no way to throw down to try to knock it free. I think we need a federal law forming a vending machine inspection bureau and heavy fines for owners/operators of vending machines that steal money. It's a fucking travesty of epic proportions. Oh well, at least I ain't this kid:
Some of you may think he's just some punk kid, but I think this kid is a hero and this is a perfect punishment for a vending machine that doesn't dispense properly. We can put a man on the fucking moon, yet somehow Americans are incapable of building a fucking vending machine that works.

Thankfully, if the vending machine here at works rips you off you can file a complaint and get your change back.
I've also got several two for one deals by purchasing an item to knock the incomplete vend to the bottom of the machine. It's like a poor man's version of "The Price is Right".

I love when that happens, it's like Christmas!

I still remember this combo pop/candy machine we had at a BBY in Indy... The damned thing worked like a broken slot machine. If you inserted a quarter a certain way, it would register then fall through. So after you re-inserted the same quarter to get to the amount you needed, you bought your product(s). The problem was that the news spread too much, so a guy decided he would exploit the situation for lunch money... he kept reinserting the quarter, then once it registered $1.00 - he pressed the refund button/bar. And amassed his $7.00 to go to Taco Bell. (Note- this person wasn't me... I kept my winnings to 2 pops/day or $1.00/day.) The next time the guys came to fill the machine, the money to merchandise ratio was WAY out of whack - so they fixed it.

I hope you kicked his ass and asked him if he was happy for F'ing it up for everybody else. And $7 at Taco Bell? Was he buying half the menu for lunch?

No shit hoffa. Obviously, the man was not a fan of the 89 cent cheezy beef and rice burrito. Those things are f'ing golden.
Speaking of fast food, anyone else notice the stoner bowls are on sale at KFC?
