== Coke machines ==
"Soda" is actually called ''pop'' [http://www.popvssoda.com by some people]. Others try to please most demographics by refering to it as "soda pop," while still others, for some inexplicable reason, call all varieties of soda "coke." The title of this section is able to sidestep this issue, as Coca-Cola Co. has a deal with the college to provide free beverages in the dining halls in return for the exclusive right to put vending machines on campus, thus all soft drinks here may be justifiably gathered under the term "Coke." === '62 CTD Basement === Located in the depths of the lower level in the mini-kitchen, near the AMT green rooms. Is both empty and seemingly dysfunctional. The card reader does not work and if you ask for your dollar bill back it gives you quarters instead. This machine is notable for being one of the few on campus that distributes CANS of soda, rather than plastic bottles. On one hand, you get less soda per order- on the other hand, sometimes you just want to satisfy a small craving, not chug a 400+ fl. oz bottle. This machine is perfect for those times. Also, each can is only 65 cents. That's AMAZING when compared to the exorbitant pricing of some machines (I'm looking at you, dollar-twenty-five-soda-machine-just-outside-of-Schow Entrance ). ===Art Studio=== Albeit unreliable when it comes to using change (the coin slot has been broken for quite some while), the soda machine takes cards and dollar bills. Located on the 2nd floor of Spencer, in the nook next to the couches. === Brooks === It's a coke product machine underneath the staircase as you go down to the basement. It now accepts coins. Joy. === Bryant === Takes neither cards nor coins, so keep your dollars crisp. Make sure your item is in stock too, because it doesn't return those dollars either. Note: NEVER WORKS. ===Carter=== This one is outside the building in the overhang. Card reader is broken. === Dodd Kitchen === Frequently problems with card reader. Some occasional problems with cash as well... coins are your best bet. === Fitch Basement === Near the pool table; a good alternative if the Prospect machine is empty or not working. However, quite frequently steals money. Also very convenient for Odd Quad residents trying to finish problem sets at 3 AM. ===Garfield=== Situated in the basement, the soda machine only takes change.
=== Bronfman Hopkins Basement ===
=== Jesup 2nd floor ===
Another good alternative, though it has sometimes not worked. May eat your cash.
Update: The coke machine currently does not work. Update 2: Appears to be fixed Update 3: Appears to be broken again === Goodrich, 2nd floor Mission ===
=== Stetson near Office Services Perry House ===
=== Prospect Basement===
Very convenient for Odd Quad residents seeking caffeine at 3 AM.
=== Greylock Dining Hall Stetson near Office Services ===
=== Thompson ===
It's between the Big House and the annex. It dispenses Coke products, and it has the motion sensor thing. If you duck, stealthily, you can avoid activating the motion sensor every time you come in the door. This saves energy.
=== Brooks === It's a coke product machine underneath the staircase as you go down to the basement. Be forewarned, however, that it steals coins--don't even bother with them. === Hopkins basement Williams E===
== Juice machines ==
=== Jesup ===
It's on the second floor, north side, and dispenses Minute Maid brand products. . . or eats your money. === Sage Basement ===Like an awesome slot machine, sometimes it wastes your money, but once in the while you hit the jackpot. I once got 4 for the price of one.
=== Williams E ===
Near the Laundry machines. As of this summer, dispensed two orange juices for the price of one. Considered a delight by many.
=== Hopkins Basement ===
== Warm beverage machines ==
Downstairs below Sawyer library. Outside Schow Library , behind the stairs in front of the restrooms. It gives no indication of when it's out of cups, however, and downstairs below Sawyer libraryso your hot drink (and your money) may end up down the drain.
== Snack machines ==
=== Schow Entrance ===
Rarely has strawberry pop-tarts. Bronfman basement is, generally, a safer bets for a strawberry pop-tart buzz.
=== Greylock Dining Hall ===
Like the coke machine, this is also inaccessible at night.
=== Hopkins Basement ===
For a faultless vend, 24 hours a day (you might have to come in through the security door on the East side and walk down the whole hall... occasionally well worth it though). As of Nov. 30th, refuses to take coins, although still delivers when presented a crisp Washington.
=== Lasell Gym ===
Installed next to the Powerade vending machine at the entrance during Spring Break 2006. Perhaps the most ironically placed snack machine on campus.
=== Mission Lobby ===
Tucked in the corner of the room with the pool tables.
=== Williams Hall ===
By the washing machines under Willy E/F. Occasionally eats up money on your card, so it's better to pay with cash.
