Our school took out the coke and candy machines so the students and teachers brought cokes and candy to sell at school. Enterprising CA kids will do the same. Brings a whole new meaning to “coke dealers”.
My high school got rid of the drink machines, too. Our solution?
We’d skip a class, walk over to the local corner mart (their motto: “we’ll sell it to ya if you have the money”) and buy a 1-liter (instead of a 12-oz). More often than not, we’d pick up a pack of smokes for the walk back to school, as well.
Perfect demonstration of the law of unintended consequences.
