I just put in two dollars for a chocolate bar and the fucking machine moved the loop thing, but it didn't go far enough and the chocolate bar is stuck, so it ripped me off of 2 dollars!! Damn it! :mad: That really pisses me off. It's just a little thing, but when you're already having a stressful day, it's the icing on the cake. I want to swear every swear word in the world right now. Help me out. :mad: :mad: :mad:

PEACE, Mike.

This reminds me of that Michael Douglas movie where he goes berserk at McDonald's.

You have a right to ax that machine apart till you get your fucking chocolate bar.

Similar thing happened to me in the US embassy last year. I finally took some US money with me there because they have vending machines there that sell only American stuff, but also accept only dollars. So I wanted a Sierra Mist, but the machine swallowed my money and didn't give me anything. I was MAD, but I refrained from kicking the machine because displaying aggression in the US embassy is not the best idea if you want to stay inside (and alive).

That's what I thought, as even if it is any $ over $1.05, it is expensive - or does this have to do with the Canadian conversion.

I think it does.

My hotel in Montreal was $293 per night Canadian which is roughly .15 cents in America.

lol, that's really funny.

To all those who thought $2 was rather expensive, please keep in mind the following:
1. It was not your regular size chocolate bar; it was one of the biggies.
2. Canadian dollar exhange rate. Hehe.

Putting more money in was not an option, because I had no other money! I'm broke, and had only $2.
Also, I probably kicked and smashed the machine a couple dozen times trying to get my bar. It was stuck for good.

Anyways, I'm better now, but I officially hate that vending machine.

PEACE, Mike.

They have a fone # you can call for a refund, yknow.


Ok, I just made that up, i'd never pay for another vending machine item in my life if that were true....but, if it was at school or a job or something, they really are usually good about giving money back and stuff. well, at my schools anyway.

oh well, who cres
