Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Aside from the beer-vending machine in the Westword newsroom, this License Plates Nuts & Bolts machine in the state motor vehicle division office at 2736 Welton Street may be the coolest dispensary I've seen around town. For $1 buck, you can avoid the aggravation of the hardware store or wherever else you need to go to get those missing nuts and bolts to hold on your new plates. And it made me think of five other vending machines that would come in handy in certain situations around town:
1. Diaper-vending machines in the DIA security line. 2. TUMS-vending machines at Chubby's. 3. Book-vending machines in Jury Duty waiting rooms at local courthouses. 4. Deoderant vending machines at the People's Fair. 5. Sober driver vending machines at let-out in LoDo.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
