These days? Really?! Sure sounds like a throwback from 30 years ago.
Why would a tampon machine be located *outside* the ladies room at a
convenience store? It's not as if people are going to use it like an
ATM. Oh, and when was the last time you were in a restaurant, much less
the restroom in one? As for condom machines, perhaps you are
remembering some honky-tonk bar with a pay-by-the hour motel next door. LOL
