ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a vending machine with the ability to accept multiple purchase requests per money transaction. As the vending machine dispensing receptacle is of limited size, a weight sensor determines if an article in the multiple dispensing sequence has been taken by the user, allowing for the subsequent article in the sequence to be dispensed. Additional features include error messages displayed to the user as well as an alarm to alert the user if an article has not been removed in some predetermined time.
