1. How do you feel about vending machine food?
Candy, potato chips and other junk foods are the highlight of most vending machine food fare. My feelings about them? Is this all there is? They are expensive! Cheaper at the supermarket for better food. It is a good thing none are near me.
2. Where on this planet is the vending machine you’ve given the most money?
My bank ATM machine when I make deposits to my own account(s).
3. Have you ever purchased a non-food, non-beverage item from a vending machine?
Yes.... Money! A Bank ATM vends cash when after you insert your bank debit card or any credit card.... in denominations of $20 usually. I only use my debit card for these at my own bank. Don't want to pay for the fees for using my card in some bank that I don't belong to.
Another type of vending machine I used a long time ago is a Jukebox...where you could play a recorded song on a 45 rpm record for about a dime back in my kid days, and a quarter later... long before the Walkman, iPod and other personal music audio devices.
And of course who can forget a payphone? I've used these off and on more than 35 years ago. There are still a few of them around, though the best ones can be found in posh hotels and at big international airports.
4. Where’s the nearest vending machine right now, and what would you get from it if you were to go immediately?
There is a Coca Cola machine four floors down in the building I live in.
5. What would you like to see in a vending machine?
Free money with no fees.
