Hi,
I just purchased a Vendo 39 that has the drum for 12 oz bottles.  While I kind of like that, it seems to be harder to find these then the 8 oz. Where do you guys find the bottles for your machines?

Thanks
I will check, so far the only place i have seen them here in MD are in the Mexican stores.  Do you know how difficult it would be to use this same 12oz drum to vend the more common 8 oz bottles?

Costco in MI stocks Mexican Coke for about $18.99 a case.  My boys love it!

Should still work, don't want to  load the bottles to far in  and not be able to reach them.
I think the 12 oz bottles are loaded cap end first  in the drum, the  8 oz bottles  go in   bottom first

It will vend both, you put the 12oz bottles in crown-first & the 8oz bottles in bottom-first...
