  I saw that immediately, that’s so illegal. You should record it and report it to the appropriate 3-letter agency (no idea which one). Doubt you’ll get the money back, but making the assholes that run that machine deal with the government would be worth it to me.

    still waiting on any company, agency, government to give a shit about the grocery stores selling eg 200g of meat but only giving 165g. not the prepackaged ceap, actual cuts of meat. numbers are examples but it happens way too much where the actual is always less then the advertised weight.

    buy a scale, weight meat. get enraged

      In the US, your state’s department of weights and measures might care. They’re the ones who verify grocery store scales, taxi cab fare meters, gas pumps… they exist to make sure you’re not getting ripped off. If you’re in a blue state they care, in a red state ymmv.

        I live in Texas and the State Dept of Agriculture takes this kind of stuff very seriously. You have to report it though, which might be the other commenter’s issue

    Probably ESA as it’s 500ml in metrics and all.

      Soda bottles in the us shows both ounces and milititers.

      Large bottles are sold as “2 liter soda”…that’s it.

      Smaller bottles are in ounces (with the metric label just a requirement I guess - no one I know here talks about buying a 500ml soda)

      Everything else is ounces or gallons, I’m sure someone will ‘umm actually’ me…but generally nothing else is metric; like milk and juice.

        I’m from Finland. It never stops being weird when Americans talk about 2 liter sodas. First, it being in liters, and second, 2 liter sodas are huuuuge. (Large bottles are usually 1.5 liters here.)

      He’s looking for the number to call on the sign that indicates the vending machines are ran by a third party company, then he can talk to a customer service representative after spending over an hour trying to get through the AI support, after providing all his personal information, a video of the incident, and a drop of his blood. Then he’ll get a check mailed to him in 6-16 weeks, maybe.
