You know you need professional help for your Soda-Machines.com addiction when...

O.k., I thnk it's time to bring in the straight jacket. I will be leaving soon for a much needed, wonderful and relaxing trip to Mexico, far away from my usual frigid northern tundra and instead of being excited about it, all I can think about is missing my three machine projects in the garage and  my hundreds of daily visits to this website!

I can't imagine going  a day without checking in here many times, let alone a full week!

Oh well, I'll keep my eyes peeled for vintage Coke Machines there. Too bad I can't bring some back in the overhead compartment and shipping would cost a pretty peso.

I got it really bad. *Sigh* '<img'>

I'll let you know before I leave. I won't be saying "Adios" for a few days.

Yea and while you are there. You will be trying to figure out how to smuggle all of those glass coke bottles among with several other products. Just when you get over that fever. You see the ultimate vending machine for XX pesos.

later,

Hello

Go to Senior Frogs.  Give your wife a glass of Jungle Juice to drink. Take you camera and watch your wife. Your wife will be funny! Have your children go to the beach when you are drinking beer at Senior Frog's

I study spanish one day a week!

C'mon 'kito, you're going to Mexico because you found the thread where it was mentioned you can still get 12 oz bottles of Coke and Pepsi in Mexican party stores, and figured it would be cheaper at the source ':p'

Well I'm back. Just got home now (1:40am my time)!
I can't wait to catch up on all the posts I missed and I bought a few fun things on eBay while I was away.
It's good to be back with my good friends here at SMC.
I hope I was missed! ':p'

Thanks Terry,
I didn't see any vintage Coke stuff except one cooler in the middle of nowhere, but I don't think it was very vintage. Just semi old and probably a cooler but not one that vends. We were driving past, so I couldn't investigate, just grab my camera and snap. I'll post the photo after I get my photos loaded into my computer. But it really is a nothing.

All Coke signs were newer or even more common, they were painted directly on the sides of little stores.

One thing I love is that the country is about 99% Coca-cola and only 1% Pepsi. My kinda country. '<img'>

Here is the only oldish Coke non-sign thing I saw. Probably nothing.
