vending machines
Got some leftover change after a day of pop culture treasure-hunting? Then this JR station has a vending machine you’ll want to check out.
Even amphibians love Japan’s unmanned drink dispensers, but what do you do if you want your change?
There’s good reason why people from around Tokyo are making the trip to Electric Town to get a taste of these special beverages.
The interesting operating system for buying metres of bubble wrap involves the use of a gacha capsule toy machine.
Now you can drink strawberry shortcake from a can — and even shake it to the consistency of your choice!
Local landmark lets you quench your thirst and satisfy your curiosity with just one of Japan’s cheapest vending machine-usable coins.
This restaurant-machine fusion is one small step for vending, one giant leap for vending-machine-kind.
