Vending machine has been incorrectly programmed. Option 604 is giving out $11 worth of stamps for $2.50!

There are PLENTY of stamps in this machine. The foyer is open 24/7 so come on down and say hi to me in the little red car (I wanna see some real life OzB drama for entertainment in my free time)

Update the following day: https://youtu.be/Al6hT11k1dE

Tl;dr - they switched off the vending machine after re-stocking it with the correct product, lol. Possibly a nationwide memo from head office to switch these things off, lol

    Wow…. I'm just totally astonished that people aren't arriving in droves, late on a Monday night, to get a few cheap stamps.

    I really thought that the queue would have been a few hundred metres long by now.

    Seems that they filled the stamps into the wrong part of the machine, doubt this will work with other machines unfortunately. Still worth a try for those who are interested

    • GrueHunter on 01/02/2022 - 09:18

      Just send them your address and leave clear instructions about a safe location to pick you up

      That way they'll never find you and somebody in Chullora will end up in a van with a bag over their head for a short side trip to Bunbury

        Ok so years ago Shopback were having an OzBargain party that was invite only. Someone who had RSVP'd ended up pulling out and I asked if I could take their place. So I rocked up to the party, said I was someone else and they let me in. Not long after I revealed who I was and the SB team were like "ohhhhhhhhhhh it's you".

        The feeling of walking to the bar, heading down the stairs, going inside, pretending to be someone else and finally revealing myself was a real buzz of excitement and anxiety.

        Long story short when people were commenting their bad experiences in CR deals, the SB rep accounts were upvoting their comments. I called it out publicly so there were some salty feelings about me. We had a fun night and made up ;)
