This weekend’s New York Times magazine (p11) had a rundown of quirky items you could buy from vending machines around the world:

Gold bars – Abu Dhabi (just how many coins would you need to put in?)

Cupcakes – LA (sold!)

Nail Polish – Paris. Hmm.

Bras – Tokyo. Seriously.

Live Bait – Reading, Pennyslvania. (eek).

Marijuana – Boulder, Colorado.

What would you like to find in a vending machine that would make your day easier? Here’s mine:

  • A  flask of uber-confidence, to be swigged before a big presentation, a job interview or when you’re about to meet your ex’s new partner.
  • The perfect LBD (if it’s not an urban myth).
  • The five food groups aka. actual tasty, healthy snacks not dating back to the Clinton administration.

Over to you.
