75 Cents at 18.99% Please

Coca-Cola is going to roll out vending machines that accept credit and cards. Not just that, but a touch less way to pay for a Coke using a credit or debt card.
Because, you know, that's exactly what we need. An effortless way to spend money, or worse, go in debt for a refreshing, calorie-ridden, obesity causing, tooth decaying carbonated beverage.
If it were beer though, you bet your ass I'd be all over that.

If you're going to buy it anyway, why not get the cashback rewards? Just like any purchase on credit--you have to use credit cards, and make sure they're not using you.
Okay, do you think I have a problem? A $0.75 coke purchase would yield less than 2 cents in cashback rewards. It shouldn't be worth it, right?
But I want that $0.015, dammit!
To be honest, I'm not going to change my spending decisions one bit just because everything is available with a swipe of my card .. I agree with Claire, if I am going to get it, I'm going to get it. And I may as well get my rewards. And I practically never have cash anyway so I may as well not die of thirst because of THAT. That'd just be silly.

This is not even funny! What's next. I new it was crazy when your able to charge a Mcdonald's meal. But come on a vending machine.
Not because it is available means we have to use it, I hope most people see it that way.
