Title: Soda boxes Post by: tkaz on February 27, 2014, 12:44:36 am Ever since I moved to NC I have noticed that they call vending machines "soda boxes" or "coke boxes", new or old seems to be the same.

Followed him into the back yard to a Vendo 81B. :happydrinkers: Title: Re: Soda boxes Post by: Ltransam on February 27, 2014, 01:55:43 pm Wonder what that is to the left of the "COKE BOX " ????

I still get odd looks once in a while when I offer someone a soda.

Love the link. I was raised in Chicago and went to school in Ohio. Both areas there was one name and it was POP. Moved to North Carolina and they have no idea what I am talking about. They call it by the name of the drink...Coke, Pepsi, 7UP....etc. |
