My local hardware store just installed a vending machine out front of it, in case you need things when they're closed

@wdormann Okay but like this is genius. 🧠

I love that they threw in some snacks and...a pack of cigarettes?!

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

@javensbukan
Haha. They're candy cigarettes.

@wdormann have you put it on OpenStreetMap yet?

Makes it quite easy, plus you can add that image to it

[javensbukan@mstdn.ca]

@wdormann Ah okay I was like dang, must be one hell of a repair job.

[mattotcha@mastodon.social]

@wdormann One pack of smokes and no duct tape? Time for restocking.

[sortova@redwombat.social]

@wdormann oh those plumbing valves down at the bottom - you always need ‘em when the store is closed. Brilliant

@wdormann Similar concept vends tools. https://www.weimivending.com/High-Quality-Hardware-Tools-Locker-Vending-Machine-with-Touchscreen-in-Neighborhood-and-Unmanned-Store.html

@wdormann When you need a rat trap, you probably need a rat trap *right now*!!

@coolandnormal @wdormann We used to have "Popeye" branded ones here but they were re-labelled as "Candy Sticks".

@jspath55 @wdormann but those glue traps are outright animal cruelty. No rodent (or accidental bycatch) deserves the slow death they dispense.

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

@mattotcha
There is both duct tape and also Flex Tape if you want heavy duty.

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

@coolandnormal @javensbukan
We don't really care about things here in the states.

[0x00string@infosec.exchange]

@wdormann thats kickass

[weezmgk@mastodon.social]

@wdormann They're turning Japanese, I really think so

[realgene@hachyderm.io]

@wdormann @javensbukan
Yeah, I looked at the price and thought nah, those aren't real cigs…

@wdormann

This is the type of company innovation we need.

My local shops has a music vending machine.

So you can get your guitar strings, mic cables etc.

As there are no longer music shops around.

[hayiwena@mastodon.online]

@wdormann Plumbing... pest control... adhesives... Goo Goo Clusters, and cigarettes. Okay.

[felis_catus_domesticus@mstdn.party]

@wdormann

pretty good choice of items, too.
