Gold Vending Machines
No, it's not a brand name - this new vending machine prototype, called "Gold to Go" was installed last week in the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi, UAE, actually spits out gold. An earlier prototype is in place in the Frankfurt, Germany airport, which only vends 1g or 10g bars and updates its prices about once an hour. The new model in Abu Dhabi accepts cash and credit card and dispenses 24k gold in 1g, 5g and 10g bars in addition to collectible gold coins from Canada, Australia and South Africa. The gold prices are updated online every few minutes and the machine takes about a 30% markup.
