Vending Machines

I never pay for food from vending machines because I
always get my money back after I get the food. Here's how:
Take a strip of clear heavy-duty packing tape (used at the
post office) and tape a strip that is one and a half
dollar-bill lengths long to the short edge of a dollar bill.
Place an equal length of tape to the other side so that the
sticky sides of the tape are stuck together. The tape should
overlap the edge of the dollar bill by approximately
one-eighth of an inch so that it barely covers any of the face
on the bill. Keep this bill in your wallet or purse and use it
at vending machines any time. Here's how it works: You
insert the bill into the bill receiver and let it slide all the
way into the machine where it stops to be read. Hold on
tightly to the tape that is still sticking out of the receiver.
Make your selection, and pull the taped bill out. You will
get whatever you selected and change on top of getting your
bill back.

Some older-model vending machines have bill receivers
that have an adverse reaction to salt water. By pouring salt
water in the bill-receiver slot, a person can make the bill
reader short-circuit and cause the vending machine to spit
out all of its change. It does not have to be ocean water;
any salt and water solution will work. Unfortunately, only
older models react this way. The newer models are
immune to this particular trick.

Free Laundry

I learned this trick in the dormitories, but it also has other
applications. For this example, we will use a Laundromat.
The slots on many pay washing machines and dryers take
coins in an upright position in a series of parallel
horizontal slots. I borrow an old pair of panty hose and
place a layer of it over the quarter slots. Then I put the
quarters into the slots with the thin layer of panty hose
under them. I fold the top layer of panty hose over the top
of the quarters and push the coin tray into the vending
