American Money in Vending Machines

The American money system is logical and very easy to use. It is based on the dollar ($1. 00), on which all cash and coins are dependent. Coins are parts of one dollar, for example: a quarter and a dime. The twenty, ten, five and one are the most frequently used bills in Antares vending machines and other machines

Each type of coin has a specific size and design. The same goes with the paper bills. Vending machines all accept coins and paper money. When you place the money in the Antares vending machine, the machine will read the money to determine the amount and then dispense the item accordingly, depending on the product that you have selected. The Antares vending machine will also return any change if there is need to. This is what makes using vending machines preferable, to going to the corner store. It is more convenient. Antares vending machines also come with changer machines so that they can change for you the dollar bills whenever necessary. This changer machine is mounted next to the vending machine so that if anyone wants to use the vending machine and are in need of change they can use the changer machine.

Many a time, people have tried to insert dollar bills half way, and then pull it out after the machine has read the dollar bill. They use a string to do this. People have also tried to get back the coins that they have inserted. These are just some of the tricks that people use to cheat vending machines.

The quarter is one of the most useful coins. If you are a student, be sure to save these! They can be used in coin operated machine like the Antares vending machine. Many vending machines will take small bills, such as ones, fives, and tens, but the change that you will get back will all be in coins.

One word of caution: vending machines do not take in dollar coins, half dollars, pennies, or Canadian coins. Charge or credit cards are being used more and more, even for buying small things , because many Americans don’t like to carry much cash with them. These cards are easy and safe to use.
