Today, while at the vending machine, I put in my $20 instead of my $1. I got my change back in quarters. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I was at a mini arcade and accidentally put a hundred dollar bill through the quarter machine. FML
Today, as a joke, my friend put my bus money in the vending machine. Not only did the machine not return my money, it wouldn't give me an item in return. FML
Today, when I went to pay for my groceries, I accidentally handed the cashier a condom instead of my $20. FML
Today, I had to pay my bus fare in very small change. After carefully counting out coins under the withering glares of a bus-load of people, I quickly slid them into the machine, and somehow ended up jamming it. FML
Today, I was robbed of five bucks by a vending machine that said "Enjoy Life!" FML
Today, I decided to be a generous guy and slip a dollar from my pocket to a beggar. Turns out I'd slipped my hard-earned $100 bill instead. FML
Today, I had to skip lunch to work on a big project, so I stopped by a vending machine. The number I wanted was 126, but I accidentally typed 124, using my last dollar. 124 was the only empty row. FML
Today, after rushing to the bus stop and frantically boarding at the last possible second, I realized that I didn't pay my fare with a single, but a twenty. FML
Today, I withdrew €40 at the ATM to pay for dinner later tonight. It wasn't until I went to pay for it that I realized I'd taken the receipt, but left the cash in the ATM. FML
Today, I walked into a gas station and saw some $.25 gum. It looked good and I thought I had a quarter in my pocket. I found no change in my pocket once I got to the register, so I pulled out my credit card. The cashier laughed a few seconds later when my card was declined for a piece of gum. FML

Most vending machines don't hold that many quarters in the coin return magazine. Once this magazine, or clip, or whatever you want to call it is full, the overflow goes in to a bulk change bin. Those don't come out until the vendor opens the machine and dumps them. Sorry, but I have to call BS on this FML.

Trust me, it can happen. It happened to me in high school, I put a $20 in for an ice cream (which was like $2.75) and got back a shit ton of quarters! It sucked.

This would never happen if you were Canadian! Most Americans make fun of our money saying it looks fake or like Monopoly money, but I can tell you one thing, I've never got stuck carrying 80 quarters around in my pocket because of a vending machine mix up! YDI

Wouldn't happen in England either. We don't even HAVE note slots on our vending machines. *hums a few bars of Jerusalem*
