Years ago you were able to buy soda on many platforms in machines. Most of the time you ended up with nothing but that's another story ;-) Those were the machines that would drop a cup and then fill it with your choice of drink. Quite often the soda would pour out before the cup dropped....

Oh I remember that, but it was only 10 cents lost. Those floor standing candy machines were the worst. They were identical to the cigarette machines you'd see elsewhere. Drop in you dime and pull the plunger for you selection and it wouldn't come forward to release your selection. Slide the coin release down to refund your dime and your dime wasn't returned. Those machines were probably made by the same company that manufactured slot machines !

Getting rid of those vending machines was the best thing the TA did.
