I only heard and saw a vending machine on TV, so of course I've no experience when it comes to that. I never spotted that even in our town. I'm not sure about other cities, but I am sure we don't have that in our town. Isn't it amazing to place a vending machine in a public park with a lot of products in there, like drinks, foods, or maybe some other items too? It'll be awesome if they also put other products just like in Japan's vending machines, they have a burger vending machine, and even a curry vending machine exists in Japan. Crazy, right?

Japan is so amazing, I think they can sell everything in their vending machines. I actually watched a vlog before on Facebook, he tried every vending machine in Japan, and it's amazing how they have a lot of different types with different products in there. There's also a pizza vending machine, a cake vending machine, and many more. Isn't that cool? I mean, WOW! That's why I love Japan! (≧▽≦). If only we could also experience that in the Philippines, like, how about a happy meal vending machine? Hahahaha, but I think this will be too much, lol.

But kidding aside, I think it will be more convenient and profitable if some people place them in public places. You know, just put normal items, like those most used or most eaten by people. But the only question is, will it be safe? Lol. Or maybe that's also the reason why no one is buying vending machines and placing them in some public places. If only we have that here in our town, I can go practice with it, and with that, if ever I go to an even bigger city, I won't be too ashamed to try that because I already have the idea of how to use it. How about you? Have you ever tried a vending machine before? Or do you have them in your city? Wahhh, I'm so jealous ಥ_ಥ.

The only vending machine we have in town is the coffee vendo machine, and this is too embarrassing, but even that is still unfamiliar to me. For someone who doesn't go out that often, I think that's to be expected. I don't know how to use it either, lol. I mean,why use it if I can just make my own coffee at home? But to be honest, I also want to try it, but who knows when I will get the chance? We have that machine in the neighborhood, but my oldies will ask me for sure if I ever tried that.

Here's the big vending machine I spotted the other day when I went to the city with Mama. This one is located near the hospital where I had my follow-up checkup. It is actually more convenient to place it here because every shop in front of the hospital closes at night. So if ever people crave something at night, they can just use this vending machine to get a coffee, biscuits, or even a soda. And they change what's inside once some of the product has run out.

And, actually, watching a vlog about vending machines before already gave me an idea how to use them. And to be honest, using this should be easy because it has instructions in front and in English and Filipino translation. But I'm not sure why, even though it has the instructions, I'm still too afraid to try it. It'll be an amazing experience if I ever try it, lol. But.... Aigooo. In the end, I just took a photo of this normal vending machine. I called it the normal machine because I feel like the vending machine in Japan is unique and crazy based on what products they put in their vending machines. Heh

But seriously, it looks really easy - errr, I think ಠಿ_ಠ. They also accept paper bills here, so coins or paper bills, old or new, are acceptable. And I just noticed that their prices are a little cheaper compared to the other shops. With the amount, they can still gain a profit, I think. I was craving Milo at that time, but I just set aside the thought and got a burger and ice cream instead, and I got it not far from here, lol (≧▽≦).

It's really not a big problem, but I'm making it a big one, lol. It should be all easy and fast, right (≧▽≦). Now I end up with a fast food burger with a lot of veggies and strawberry ice cream. Which is still not that bad. We enjoyed it, and that's what's important.

I also haven’t seen a vending machine like this in person. It’s so nice that you had tried a vending machine. I wanna try it tooooo!!!🤩

Wahhh, I thought it is just me, bus sadly I couldn't try it coz I'm afraid to use it haha. Maybe next time I'll try.

Apaka hightech na tlga Ng lahat nho. Wla pa Yan dito sa bukid namn hehehe.

Atleast you have one within the area Ruffa and as you have said mas mura.

Japan is way ahead of us for sure, and pag iniwan mo mag-isa yung vendo dito sa atin especially pag walang CCTV nako good luck nalang.

In our place, we have that coffee vendo machine, piso wifi and even water. I saw some doing the vendo machine ng bigas and oil narin. Most likely removing human contact narin sana tuloy-tuloy ang pag angat.

I never seen too a vending machine like these, here there are mostly coffee or easy snacks vending machines but in the last year we had a lot of vending machines with cellphone batteries
