It's not only the Japanese that enjoy vending machines, Walmart is interested in having wine vending machines at several of its stores.
The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board says that Walmart has preliminary approval to put the kiosks in stores in North Fayette, North Versailles, Butler, Washington, Belle Vernon, Monaca and New Castle.
These machines require customers to swipe their driver’s license and even give a breathalyzer test before they are allowed to browse over 50 varieties of wine.
Sounds simple enough, but some think, maybe too simple.
Some ask, wouldn't it be easier for the underage to buy wine?
Jeff Merritt from Mount Washington had another concern: “At Walmart – guns and wine – maybe not the best things to have at Walmart.”
