I just went to the drinks machine in work, put in my pound, pressed the button, got the drink, wen't to get my 15p change and omg.
There's £18 in the change box !!

why is there £18 change in the box?
who could have put it there? Do you like your co-workers? can you get caught? Do you feel lucky? What will you do with the cash if you keep them?

I think the machine fucked up and dropped all the money out, so no one will really be able to know where the money went, but I don't know

WAIT. Just think about your choice very carefully... This is quite an ethical dilema that could result in a serious moral downward spiral. DO THE RIGHT THING! (only you know what that is).

you pay what? 50, 60p? forr a can of coke in that machine? everrytime you buy one they arre rripping you off. it's a mugging as i see it since i doubt therre is any otherr place to get a drrink, unless you want to have a verry shitty and drry mouthed uncomforrtable day, you arre forrced to hand overr the money.
and often they don't give change back. keep the money.

Maybe it's a test... and someone important left it there just to see how honest his employees are!
I'd probably keep it though. Finders keepers :-p I've been ripped of by those machines way too many times anyway. (they take the money and nothing happens... or even worse... the mechanism doesn't go far enough and your candy is left there dangling... aargh!)

lol. yeah ;-)
But it also happened to me in real life! A couple of times even. Those machines hate me. When there are not too many people around sometimes I kick it and shake it a bit... but it hardly ever works.
Or sometimes like I said I just put a coin in... and it doesn't "take"... but instead of the coin reappearing in that little compartment so you can try again... it just dissapears! Craziness!
One time the coin also slipped from my fingers and rolled under the vending machine :-s Altough I suppose the machine can't really be blamed for that one... there was still no way to get my coin (2 euros!) back.
btw does preview already work again? I'm too afraid to try it out myself... I hate it when my messages dissapear like that.

In Dubai coke is 20p. Same with water.
Kicking coke machines can work and it is fun to be a vandal. OI!
