with supply and demand and all… IM DEMANDING CANNED BREAD!! where’s the supply 🥺?

It replaces workers with robots so it would probably save money too.

    Japan can have more vending machines, because their culture raises people in a way that they have less vandalism and the companies take more responsibility for problems with vending.

      I thought you were going to say that their culture is more insular and less sociable, because that would be a better explanation than the popularity of vending machines.

      I’m in France. There is a gas station near me with three vending machines : drinks, pizzas, and CBD.

      The pizza one is mostly fine. The grid protecting the screen was torn apart. Tbf it was annoying. The drinks one is damaged, and is now protected by a metal cage. The CBD machine is completely destroyed.

      All publicly available objects in France end up like this.
