vending machine

no such thing as a free ice cream sandwich

Today at work, I went downstairs to microwave my dinner. As I passed the vending machines, I noticed that, as is sometimes wont to happen, there was an ice cream cookie sandwich precariously balanced at the end of one row. Upon closer inspection, I realized that it would actually take quite a bit of force to dislodge it, and so concluded that today wouldn't be a free-ice-cream-sandwich day for me.

So I splurged and actually bought one (it put me back an entire dollar), and continued preparing my dinner. About this time another hapless soul wandered past, and was also caught by the lure of free ice creamy goodness. He gave it a valiant effort, I have to give him that.
