vendtex Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Anyone else get their machines messed with a lot? We've had three or four in which someone has stuck some object into the keyhole. Today was a toothpick. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodney69 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 At least once a week! Use a razor knife to try and pull them out. I keep a knife with me and use the tip to pull it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerformaVending Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Straws, wrappers, toothpicks, bits of caps, washers, bits of metal wire, gum, ketchup, mustard, syrup, bits of toys, foreign coins, and my personal favorite, fake acrylic nails. You never know what you're going to find... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSVEND Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 All the above mentioned... plus leaves, grass, rice (Chinese restaurants) marijuana, bobby pins, I've literally seen it all in the 14 years doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelwithoutaclue Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 On a positive note on my machines which take tokens people put dimes in. The dime just goes in and they get nothing. I make approx. 1.50 a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
questionmark693 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Keep a trashcan nearby if you can. Doesn't solve the issue, but it seems to help, especially with people just leaving empty capsules everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
