    Default Vending Machines

    I thought odd vending machines were not something that has really hit the US yet....well it has at least hit Baltimore! While in the Inner Harbor yesterday I happened to come accrosss a Proactiv Vending Machine!! Maybe I just don't get out enough and this has been around for ages but I was genuinely shocked and amused at seeing this! So I had to take a pic for my SW friends!

    Anyone else have any pictures of unusual things being dispensed from vending machines?

    I'd be really pissed if that vending machine ate my money.

    the ipod vending machines always crack me up...as it's some kind of impulse purchase.

    The airport I kind of understand (but who wants to pay a hugemarkup on an ipod with no music on it?) but they also have one at the Macy's at my mall. There's an Apple store in the same mall!

    ^ Ive seen those too in the airport. I guess if you had your laptop with you, you could upload the music to it. But in the mall?! Thats funny

    My local really shitty mall has one of those. First it was an Ipod one, then it was baby supplies, and now its Pro Active.

    The nicer local mall has an Elizabeth Arden vending machine. I never quite understood that because it was about 5 stores down from a decent Macys. I'll have to get some pictures soon.

    If only Lush came in convenient vending machines....I'd be fucked.....well, we'd ALL be fucked.

    The japanese one's are funny! I knew overseas had some odd veding machines... I just didn't realize it had reached the US! LOL! And an ipod vending machine!? Wow! is all I can say as I shake my head!

    I'll admit though I liked the hello kitty popcorn machine! I'd use it!

    WTF? Did I miss something? The weirdest things I thought I'd ever see in a vending machine was ice cream (a Dippin' Dots at the movies). I've seen like tampons and Advil in corporate office vending machings in the bottom row next to breath mints, and under Snicker bars. But Proactive? What is this world coming to? Adopt a kid! Just insert coins here!

    They have marijuana vending machines now in California! You can read about it in , but you do have to have a medical marijuana card and there's still a risk of the feds raiding it.

    eeewwww.... a vending machine with used schoolgirl panties???
    (it's about the 40th one down, marked "truly bizarre")

    that is some freaky shit
    i used to dream militant dreams / of taking over america / to show these white folks how it should be done
    i used to dream radical dreams / of blowing everyone away / with my perceptive powers of correct analysis
    i even used to think / id be the one to stop the riot and negotiate the peace / then i awoke and dug
    that if i dreamed natural dreams / of being a natural woman
    doing what a woman does / when shes natural
    i would have a revolution

    that's pretty clever... I've come to work before only to realize all my thongs are still in the dryer at home!
