Sharing the video, he said, “…I saw something very strange. A vending machine, and they’re selling underwear in a vending machine! Look! How many new ideas have we come up with? Underwear in a vending machine, but this is crazy. Who goes on the subway and thinks ‘Oh, I forgot my underwear, let’s buy some here’?”
Why after all
After this, some users came in support of this new idea. Also, suggest ways to make it better. One user wrote that this will benefit women, while another suggested that stationery and sewing items should also be kept in it. Another user wrote that vending machines carrying essential goods are very common in countries like Japan. One woman wrote that it is very good and will help women move around without any fear during periods. Another viewer wrote, ‘This is not for those who forgot to wear underwear, you need to change your thinking. In this fast-paced world, some people do not get time to go shopping. They can use such vending machines while travelling. Another comment was that just because we have seen Coke and chips coming out of vending machines, it is foolish to think that vending machines are only for that.
