JAPAN Style has posted several articles about vending machines in Japan.
There are more weird vending machines.
Today, I want to share this amazing one I found in a Japanese blog.
It’s a huge vending machine. What does it sell?
Let’s see what are inside of it.
There is no slot to put cash because it accepts credit cards only!!
It sells a famous skincare brand.
One set costs 9,600 yen (US$102), so I think it doesn’t take cash for security reason.
Lately, the vending machines that accept [W:suica], Japanese electric money, are often seen everywhere in Japan, but I hadn’t seen the one accepts credit card!
And it also surprised me that the items are so expensive, almost 10,000 yen!
How about the vending machines in your country?
If you see a unique one, please let me know!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I’ve seen this vending machine in airports in the states starting several years ago. Also, the one selling iPods
Thank you for your comment. Wow, there is a vending machine selling iPods? That’s cool. I kind of thought that the skincare vending machine didn’t look Japanese, and obviously the product was American! But the skincare vending machine in Japan makes sense because here, both men and women especially in young generation really care about how their faces look. If you notice something in my blog, please leave comments again!
Interesting post! Japan does have unique vending machines. Just today on my blog I posted about these vending machines that allow you to win a second drink.

Vending machine is not popular in Vietnam, but you can still find some, most of the time in a park, selling beverage. I found these machines interesting, not because of a special product they offer but, at a closer look, they turn out to be old National-made machines from Japan, http://www.flickr.com/photos/63896490@N00/4871708378/. One machine even cautions that it doesn’t accept coins! (http://www.flickr.com/photos/63896490@N00/4901558752/)
