It depends a lot on the item in question <.< It would be between 50-60p and a pound or so, I haven't bought anything from one in ages though, so the prices might have changed. I like the Japanese ones that sell bottles of Tea for about a pound, 120Y for royal milk tea :D

  • Yeah, prices are considerably cheaper where I work. But I don't know about anywhere else.

  • Japanese have crazy vending machines. You can get hamburgers and underwear in some. Japan is just a crazy place.

    Yeah... I saw one for cigarettes which wasn't too unusual and one with a strange assortment of foods that really didn't look like they belonged in a vending machine but at least the tea ones were on every street corner. Well, one per street at least <.< I wouldn't have survived without those bottles of tea lol, I had pretty bad food poisoning so it was plain rice and tea all week :[

  • Meh we just have soft drinks in ours in America. But vending machines aren't to common anymore. For snack machines we have tons of stuff, candy, bags of chips, stuff like that. What did you get food poisoning from?

    The hotel at the airport before I flew out, I had this nacho plate thing and I think the guacamole was off. I spent the night before the flight vomiting everywhere and then had to bluff my way through customs <.< 'Yes I'm fine, just anxious about flying' >.> I didn't throw up after that night but my insides were just agony, I drank about a 500ml bottle of Milk of magnesia over the course of the week to settle my stomach. The downside to drinking a shit ton of that stuff is the... laxative effect <.< It was that or vomiting but anyhow <.< So I spent the first half of the trip eating the odd bit of plain rice or fruit because anything more made me hurl. Or want to at least <.< The tempura vegetables were very nice but afterwards I felt like I was dying :l So yeah, plain rice and tea for most of the week and in the last two days I could finally stomach something more substantial and I had a few different dishes but nothing too exciting. ;_; When I eventually get the chance to go back over there, I will hopefully not be quite so sick. I would have liked to try things like Sushi (Proper ones, not supermarket stuff) but yeah :l

    Indeed, I learned my lesson the hard way. It's taken about 3 years for me to be able to eat nachos again without vomiting by reflex ._. Guacamole pls go though. Yeah :/ It was pretty much hell seeing the rest of my friends eating all these nice foods and I'm there with a bowl of rice :l

  • I'm gathering that you guys don't mind using 10p coins, in the US anything below a quarter is generally considered useless except to act as change you get from a cashier lol.

    Yeah, any coppers are next to worthless now though. 1 or 2 p won't buy you anything and they just serve as an amusing method to pay your parking fines. 5p and 10p are still used fairly frequently though.
