A method and machine for verifying or validating coupons wherein the method comprises passing at least two juxtaposed coupons, each of which has a bar code printed or formed thereon, through or relative to a bar code reader, such that the juxtaposed coupons if accepted by said bar code reader cause matter to be dispensed from a holding and dispensing device. In the machine for verifying or validating coupons, a bar code reader adjacent the inlet, a holding and dispensing device and a programmed processor are also provided within the housing.
