Interesting… the Japanese really like their vending machines.

As weird as it sounds, I think this is probably a very profitable business. The Japanese have whole ‘restaurants’ where all you do is order from vending machines. With as much as they are used over there, I can see them very popular here in populous downtown/business districts.

I have a coworker that said when he was in Japan that actually had porn vending machines.

You can get gold from vending machines in the middle east.

America needs to step its up its vending machine game. How can we expect to compete on the worlds stage unless we can offer people chicken noodle soup out of a vending machine?

live crab in a machine, where’s Peta?

You can buy used panties from vending machines in Japan. They’re pretty whacky about it over there.

The Best Buy ones I saw in Vegas were pretty cool. Had everything from ipods to camcorders.

woah, thats pretty cool. Who needs store when you got vending machines?

that’s pretty convenient, you never know when you’re goin gto soil yourself.

Remember, never pass by a bathroom, never waste a hard-on and never trust a fart.

I have actually discussed with someone is one of my student orgs trying to get 49er gear set up in one of these machines and place it somewhere. On campus wouldn’t work because of the competition clauses with Barnes and Noble. It would have to be off campus somewhere, preferably downtown.

At truck stop rest rooms you can get flavored or ribbed condoms in a machine. :))
