When I was a kid I pressed the "return coin" button on a vending machine at a rest stop and 50¢ came out. Gotta check every single vending machine now.
Have you found many?
I do this too, and yeah you’d be surprised how many times there’s money in the coin slot
Can confirm. Coin slot returns saved me from bankruptcy! Sadly much less common now with the advent of contactless card payments.
Technically, any amount of money would save you from bankruptcy
If you owed $1k then $1 wouldn't save you
This isn’t 1980s Hollywood rich guy poor guy rules.
My dad said when they were kids they'd check the payphones for coins in the change slot, so sometimes kids would spit in them to fuck w people
