Vending Machine insanity

A few days ago when Sereen n I went to Matheson Library to study and do assignment and well muck around with the live streaming of You Tube..... Something disastrous happened

When v just got there Sereen was like
"I wanna buy Vanilla Coke"

But then i made her go with me to hand in assignment in Menzies Building on the 7th floor which was quite deserted and scary as there is noone there at dat hour. FFRREEAAKKIIEEE...

From Menzies v made our way to the campus center to buy food to last us the whole night in the library and well to buy her coke as well from the vending machine.

Off all the machines we passed, it was all can packaged.. and Sereen refused to buy it as she wants the bottle packaged ones...

So OK... we walked on and then she found one....

She put coins in and unfortunately all the coins she put in was rejected. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!!!!!!

So v gave up and realised that the machine actually accepted notes as well...

V opened our purse to find dat v got no cash hahahahah THE HORROR.... so fine i went to withdraw money and the smallest amount withdraw- able is 20 dollars.

Walked back to the machine feeling contented with the money withdrawed, i pushed the money in and i realised dat it only accepts 5 and 10 dollar notes.... I guessed so that they dun have to give so much change back....

Feeling a bit annoyed now, i supposedly wanted to grab a change at the phone card shop... But then the wait to get a smaller change made me realise i had to buy a phone card to call home since i finished my previous one... So i bought it and got a 10 dollar note.. YAY!!!

I walked back towards Sereen with a pleased look on ma face.. Happy dat v can finnaly buy the drink and head to the library.... Pushed the money in and OoOpS it came out again. So i tried again... Nop came out again...

Sereen tried, same thing.. After a few attempts, i think the machine got sick of us. Sick dat v din get the msg dat v cant buy drinks... So it decided to punish us by taking the money n dats it.

It ate my money.. Freggin 10 bucks went in n no drinks came out... ARGHHH... Sereen went to the information counter to seek help and the person in charge there just told her (with an annoyed look) call the number on the vending machine....

How helpful is that.... And the number there is actually for service enquiries or for refills.. shesh...

So left with no choice v just called and i explained to the guy over the phone wat happened... told them the location of the machine and he said he will post me my 10 bucks hahaha... AWESOME!!!!
