Re: Vending machines

A supermarket has many of those costs, but yes there would be costs because of the rental commission and maintenance.

Re: Vending machines

I think, as Julie says, if they were full of healthy food, not many people would use them? I use them very rarely but when I do, I am normally 'on the go' so just need something quick to give a boost of energy, or a fast drink. I'm not sure I would be interested in a piece of fruit for instance.

Modern vending machines are technically very good these days, dispensing all sorts of products, unlike the ones we used to get in the 70's which basically just took your money.

I used to buy a package of roasted, salted peanuts now and then at the machine when I worked .

Re: Vending machines

The only time I use vending machines is if I happen to be major peckish and there's nothing else around to eat. Otherwise, I avoid them.

Re: Vending machines

I have only used one once at Uni.
You had to kick it to get it to work.
