@jessie I have never seen such a machine, definitely not in Germany. Do they exist also elsewhere than Istanbul?

@tschach they're in Malta too, though typically you put your plastic deposit bottles in as payment instead of cash. Streets are cleaner, kitties (and other wildlife) get fed.

I love how one can count on the cats telling people to put coins in the machine. I'm shocked there isn't a cat demanding more coins in these photos.
