It's been months and months for me

The ketchup Doritos thread made me remember taking a pic of ketchup flavored Doritos in a vending machine in Canada over 20 years ago.

April 2020 - bought a snickers from a vending machine at work because I didn't want to deal with Covid crap to go get lunch while in the office that day.

I used an ATM; which is like a vending machine; last month to get cash to pay for parking at a UIL event. First time I have used an ATM since needing cash for graduation gifts last May.

That's a good question. Hadn't thought about it, but looking back, its been at least several years for me. I also didn't realize that so many folks have rarely used one recently.

About a year ago. Took the kids to Disneyland. Travel was not good this time. My kids are usually good travelers, but this was a rough one. Had a couple airline size bottles of rum in my luggage, so I got some diet cokes from the hotel vending machine waiting for a pizza to be delivered while the kids and wife played on their tablets.

That's way too expensive for a single bottle of that nestle Kirkland crap

Why would you fall for this

Water vending machine at a stadium w/in the last couple years. Other than that, been a while.

I miss the days of being able to buy dirty pictures from a machine in truck stop bathrooms.

Referring to your mom as a vending machine is a bit insulting.

The one at work has drinks for a quarter, chips and other snacks are 75 cents so I use it pretty often.

I remember in the 70's fighting my sister over who would get to pull the lever on the cigarette machine at Pizza Inn….

MANY years ago we found a frat house near UTMB in Galveston that had a vending machine in an outside hallway that was full of nothing but beer for a quarter. Since we were all underage to buy it legally this was like finding the Holy Grail.

Good thread. I have no idea. If I get a snack at work we have a self-pay market thing.

I def used one pre-Covid at the old office from time to time. That might be it.
