Vending machines aren't just for pop anymore. From mobile phones to soccer balls, you can get anything in modern vending machines. In fact, you don't even have to 'get'. You can also 'give' with charitable donation vending machines.
This super-gallery showcases some of the hottest new innovations in the wonderful world of vending.
Implications - Vending machines are the simplest way for people to obtain a service or product while on the go. What once started off as a way to serve snacks has turned into an opportunity for people to obtain much more. Consumers in a modern-day society are more frequently out of their homes and need more alternatives to obtain necessities. Businesses should find new ways to sell their product or service through vending machines.
