That is pretty cool, although who walks around with enough cash to make a purchase? I think once the machines start accepting credit cards sales will increase quite a bit.

Typical that my hometown gets the first one. I hate that mall with a passion! The Sawgrass. Now that is a mall!

Trust me. Lots of people who live in Boca Raton have plenty of cash on them for something like this.

I'm actually surprised that Florida got it, they were talking about how the first US one would be placed in Vegas.
When they first showed up in Dubai there was a debate about the engraving they offered, as in how much gold it removes and if they discount the price by the tiny (but valued) bit that is removed.

Man, I'd hate to have to carry around that much change to buy it.
Ok, well it's not a real vending machine, but there you go.

It's an advert for smartcars that they only did in Japan since vending machines are a lot more common there and have a wider range of goods for sale.

That's true ~ You can get almost anything in a vending machine in Japan! I was surprised by some of the offerings
