always been a fan of Japanese Efficiency

I have always thought that it was great that the japanese have vending machines for everything. Self serve = faster and cheaper way to get goods.


I came across this website where someone has taken pics of vending machines that sell things that I never thought would end up in a vending machine

When I lived in Ueda City, Japan there was a Kiren Beer vending machine right outside my door. Also, you could buy any type of porno you wished from a vending machine. Not that I did.
