this works on all Uk vending machines that sell chocolate and crisps-the ones that have a see-thru front and have the little swirly things that push the food out.
I had been on holiday and had loads of small change in euros, what you need are 20 cent pieces. the vending machines confuse the 20 cent pieces with a 1pound coin therefore you can get chocolate bars and crisps for about 13p or you can simply press refund and get 1 pound back in English money.
this is mainly good for when you are going on/coming holiday cus wen else are you going to have foreign money. You cud change the money at a bureau de change but I cudnt be bothered.
Heres a picture of the two coins.
you can see the similarities in the shape and size of the two different coins but its pretty stupid of the vending machine makers not to think of this glitch.
hope this is use full for all you brits out there.
sorry if the picture doesnt work if you want to see it its in my photo gallery http://rotteneggs.com/r3/show/ow/175870.html?cpos=0&al=images&iid=115201

Mar 12, 2006 3:48 pm - Way to quad post you fucking dumbass
Mar 12, 2006 6:33 pm - actually it is free. u just need to start out with two 20 cent piece. then u put it in and u get a pound wich is more meaning u make money. and i think thats basicly free. once u do it 2 times then u get a soda and uve earned some money. anyways 5*
Mar 12, 2006 11:17 pm - Rats. Having an egg on conning UK vending machines - yay. Conning the vending machine with American currency - D’oh! The English can’t win!
Mar 13, 2006 12:39 pm - why do you say you didn’t self vote? Even if people come and randomly vote it a five you can tell they didn’t self vote because it will have more thatn one view.
Mar 13, 2006 1:48 pm - this dosent work trust me i live in the uk and tried nearly every thing to scam vending machines. the 20 cent is not the same weight as the pound coin so it will not work
Mar 13, 2006 2:05 pm - IT WORKED FOR ME the ones i know it works on are the food machines i have done it only on these cos they had those types at the airport(manchester airport)
Mar 13, 2006 9:48 pm - I hate it when the crispys get stuck at the very end of the swirl metal thing. Then someone goes and buys the one behind it and they get 2. Its an outrage i say.
