What are These?

At first I thought they were boldly-colored garbage cans.

What are these?

I saw these small boxes at the Quezon Memorial Circle and wondered what they were.  So, I took a closer look and realized that these are newspaper boxes for  "Tempo" and "Manila Bulletin"!!  This is the first time I saw these in the Philippines!

Instructions on how to use these:

1. Press button corresponding to the item that one likes
2. Drop coins (Php1, 5 or P0.25)
3. Wait for the newspaper to come out of the chute.

Sorry, exact amount only.

 
WARNING: The machine does not give change so make sure that you insert the exact amount.

Nice!

These boxes are located just outside Serye and Max's at the Quezon City Memorial Circle.  Wanna try?
