Vending Machine’s

Posted by admin on 2nd May 2010

Last year, that Best Buy has recently launched a pilot program to install vending machines that dispense consumer electronics in major airports around the United States. I wonder if this idea would click or pan out. They have planned to distribute twelve (12) Best Buy Express machines to airports in Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and San Francisco September last year. It said that credit cards are accepted to purchase any electronic stuff, no cash! You will find cell phones, digital cameras, flash drives, MP3 players, headphones, travel adapters and chargers in this vending machine. I wonder if you can use debit card for this vending machine. The Vice President of Strategic Planning for Best Buy stated, “The launch of Best Buy Express is another way for Best Buy to provide consumers with the products they need from a brand they trust, even while they’re on-the-go”. Notice how every thing comes in handy now; there is a DVD rental machine, soda/snack vending machine, etc. I can say that, vending machines are great ideas!
