Title: How much trouble
Post by: Pat Pixley on April 23, 2006, 11:16:06 pm
Ok how much trouble do you think I'm in ?
 I had told my wife I would not buy any machine's
 till after we get back from our vacation.
Well I slipped and bought a monster
of a machine A Vendo V345M  I will drop a photo
 tomorrow, I gave $20. for it,The guy I bought it from
 had it pluged in and it got real cold, problem
 no key second problem I think it is full of soda.
Third My wife has no ideal,   :suspect:  It's hiding
 out at my brother inlaws in his pole barn.
 It's Not the money it's just a real bad habit
 (OH my    :censored: I think I need help
  is there a Doctor in the house)  So any help
 any thought's or a good suport group.

Pat,
1st - And when do you leave on vacation? Next week?
2nd - $20? How can you go wrong? You could turn it for a nice profit in a week! I'm glad it is not the money (that would be very sad) :(
3rd - Is there $20 worth of HER soda in it?
4th - I think there is a doctor on call (oh wait - this is 2006 - scratch that!) Maybe he is available - yeah that's the ticket!)

My wife doesn't know I bought the Cav55 last week, but I'll give in next week when it arrives. She still doesn't know about the Stoner 180 at my brother's house in Texas, but I'll give in when I bring it home! And I spent a heck of a lot more than you.

And my wife has no ideal either!! If she did - my whole house would be soda!

What I did was show my wife the pictures Glen just posted and say "Now that guy he has a real problem, me I'm only playing at it." - It worked....

For 20 bucks, you can still afford to get here something "Real Nice"..... Like a rag and some buffing compound so she can help you clean it!!! ha...
I'm in the same situation... I finally have a handle on a couple of Vendo 56 RT's. but of course she doesn't think we have room for them... and what am I'm giving up to accomodate another machine?
We'll see how that works out!

You could always go south of the (MI-IN) border and drop it off at my place :p
Wait, then my  wife would kill me :D

I beat that horse, but he might have a little life left in him after a rest.
My wife just frowns now - she knows I fall in love with each and every one I get. As long as I keep most of them pretty much out of the way of daily life, then she is OK with it. The main thing she cares about is that it does not impact the finances and we can continue living like we do.

I might have to try that next!

Well My wife  now's about it and said as long as it does not make a home at our home and it has to turn some cash.
 So I stopped by the local Pepsi distributor and got a new lock and key set what a nice bunch of folks there.
 well here a photo of it .

That doesn't look very big. What are the dimensions?

Is it that, or is it extra wide?  :suspect:
