I remember when the person filling up the vending machine at my old school left the door slightly ajar. Needless to say when they realised, it was half empty! :D
 
im sorry i dont care about the 13 cans of drink that fell down but i do care WHY WOULD YOU CHOOSE TANGO ORGANGE over Cherry COKE!?!??? people these days....:rolleyes:
 
I remember one at school, it was those ones with the springs, there were 2 chocolate bars left:
-A row of toffee crisps.
-A single kit-kat chunky stuck half way back the row above the toffee crisps.

Easy choice, toffee crisp for me, although I like the kit-kat more. But I punched in the wrong letter, and the spring with the kit-kat starts to turn "Noooooooo!"

The she thing stops, judders, and the kit-kat shoots forwards breaking in half on the glass, then falls to the dispenser.

"YES! YES! I GOT THE KIT-KAT! HA! I PWNED YOU VENDING MACHINE! YES!!!"
 
about the closest i've gotten to getting something out of a vending machine was back at school when spain was still using the 100 pasetas. they used to pass as £1 coins but worth something stupid like 25p.

Once upon a time a tango was a tango and coke was coke, none of this different flavour nonsense.
 
To the internet!

Went to the vending machine on lunch, put in my money, had a quick squint at the drinks and chose Orange Tango. Pretty standard affair.

..until a cherry coke falls down :mad: ... and then another... and another... 13 Cherry Cokes for me :eek:

Told the boss to which his reply was "don't say **** all" so they're now sat in the fridge in the staff room. Great success!

Yes!!!! Victory, THE PEOPLE 1 Vending machine rip off ***** 0
 
I used to love the one at Surrey Uni under the stairs in AP building. It'd eat people's money even if there was drink there and the return money button didn't work, and wouldn't release the drink. Many times I got the drinks nobody tried to get, at one point I ended up with putting in 20p, getting out £3 and a bottle of drink.

So much fun though, watching people punch in the numbers for drinks in the middle and not trying the edge ones and giving up. I'd come along, punch in another number and get a free drink. :D
 
There's a weird vendor at work with several levels and curved doors that go around the cylindrical drum of shelves. You have buttons to turn the drum round till you find something you want, then u open the door about 1/4 inch, and then it opens itself up the edge of that segment on that self. Each shelf is like a cake, with plastic dividers so you can only grab what you bought.

However, there is one shelf, filled with packets of mini hobnobs, where the door opens past 1 segment just enough that you can nab 2 mini hobnobs, for the price of just 1 door opening of 15p! Great Success!! :D
 
Went to Alton Towers once and found a vending machine with a credit of 60p which didn't disappear when an item was selected. Needless to say, we took as much as we could carry, resulting in a bag full of chocolate and sweeties :) Sadly we couldn't get the large £1.20 bags of sweets.
