Anyone who lives in a town or city is used to the sight of the odd vending machine. As a convenience they have no equal - at least when they work or have not run out of the product they are supposed to sell.
Yet where most countries have vending machines for a limited range of goods the Japanese have taken it to extremes. Japan truly is the country of vending machines and some of the items you can get from them might surprise you.

Lot's of kinds, but mostly drinks or cigarettes, sadly lacking in ones which sell snacks like potato crips, chocolate bars, etc. I've seen only two or three in my almost 4 years in Japan. In my home town snack vending machines are everywhere. Have to go to the konbini here if I get an attack of the munchies.
We had a beer machine in out barracks in Germany. Quite handy.
