The one time I bought a Monster from a vending machine - the kind that drops it. The can broke from the impact.

never really got lucky at a vending machine, but at my school we have this very old vending brick. and when you give it a slight hit so it wobbles a bit you usually get a few things for free. they placed a security camera above it now tho so its kinda hard to do it without getting caught.

2 packs of cookies for the price of 1. Nothing fancy but makes up for the times it fucking ate my change without even trying to vend it (happened on this one machine at work)

I have had a few not eat my money... Does that count? Other than that I think I have gotten as many as 3 sodas for free.

Got around 7 items for the price of 1 in a vending machine at a hotel I once stayed at.

It wasn't as much luck as it was a bit of physical persuasion that I applied after it refused to give me my one item.

I hate and love the drink vending machine at work. I hate it because it never takes my bills and forces me to exchange it for coins in the snack machine. On the other hand, a little persuasion by my 6'6" tall partner usually results in 4-5 free waters or iced teas.He actually got 13 one time.

One time in a hotel a coke machine ate my dollar.  When I shoved it the door swung open.  Being the model citizen I am I obviously...

I'll leave the rest up to your imagination.
