Apparently, it shorts out the computer and money will spill out.
    I remember this from a news story a few years ago. According to the story they fixed this problem shortly after it was discovered, but I have never actually tried it so who knows, they could have made up that they fixed it to get people to stop trying.

    The only cool vending machine story I have is that on a class trip to France and Spain we bought all the beer in the vending machines in our Hotel in Spain. A bunch of 15-17 year old American kids left in rooms by themselves next to a vending machine selling beer next to an elevator which takes one to all the other vending machines that sell beer on all the other floors with only the threat that if you buy beer your going to get in trouble... Yeah, we listened. We tossed the empties into the drop celing and none of the chaperones were the wiser.

    I found this out from a guy I used to work with. He partnered with another guy. They were in the vending business. He mentioned the biggest problem was with college campuses. The warm saltwater would short out a chip or sensor that despensed your change. When it shorted out the money would pour out. It cost the venders a lot money repairing the damage.

    then theres the good old fallback of changeing pennies into yen, since they register in the cadbury machines as a pound coin
