Normally the vending machines outside wally world are 50 cents for the 12 oz cans and $1.00 for 20 oz bottles. so me being the tightwad that I am usually go for two cans. 4 more oz for the same price, that is until today. It was bright out so I was thinking that the 99.95 on the machine was a mistake or something. Then I put my 2 quarters in and hit the button, nothing happens except it flashes the 99.95. Looks like someone reprogrammed the machine's price. At least the coin return on this machine worked. Then I had to walk the quarter mile to get to the other side of the store to get a vending machine with the normal price, thank god it wasn't sold out.Tuesday, October 16, 2007

Wow, I'm glad I quit the Dew habit. Maybe when cigs start costing $99 a pack, I'll quit that too.
