One of the things Mike the Musicologist and I did over the weekend was to make a stop in Canyon Lake and go to the local grocery store.
Not because we were hungry, but because we wanted to try out the ammunition vending machine.
They had rifle, handgun, and shotgun ammunition. We didn’t look at the shotgun ammo. The rifle ammo was: .300 Blackout, .223, and Aguila .22 LR ammo. The handgun ammo was 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP.
We tried to buy one box of .45 and two boxes of .22 LR. The prices weren’t great, but we were treating this as an experiment.
Unfortunately, there was some sort of problem when I tried to use Apple Pay for the transaction: I think it couldn’t recognize my face due to the position I was in, and the passcode failed as well. And when Apple Pay failed, it left the machine totally locked up. We couldn’t get it to respond to any of the buttons on the screen, or even reset. Poor error handling on the part of the implementation team, I believe.
Sadly, we had to chalk this up as a failed experiment. But I did get some taco-flavored Doritos while I was there. I haven’t seen those around in a while.
Where are you that you found taco-flavored Doritos? We haven’t seen them for a year or two. My wife would use them to make a dish that I like, and she won’t use any other flavor, because it would not taste the same, so I have doing without, for that long.
It was at the Lowe’s Market in Canyon Lake, where we were playing with the ammo vending machine.
Amazon has them, though like many of their other food items, they are a bit expensive if you go that route.
