I thought I had won the vending machine lottery the other day, but I think I was tricked. I guess this was probably Monday, and I was buying crackers out of the vending machine. When I went to retrieve my crackers, I found two candy bars in the machine for the taking. So I took both of them and hurried off because Shannon and Anisa were waiting on me. I was really excited. The candy bars were a new breed, some sort of M&M candy bar, called M-azing. I gave one of the candy bars to Shannon and kept one for myself (Anisa said it was okay). Then when I got back to the library I told Jimmy and Andrew about my good luck, and they told me that I shouldn’t eat the candy bar because it was probably poisoned, especially since it was a kind of candy bar that no one had ever seen before. I thought this was a little paranoid, but since I have a problem with paranoia I decided to leave the candy bar with the two of them (this was probably always the plan, like when your older siblings would talk you into giving them something by convincing you it sucked), but anyway, I fell for it. On my next trip to the vending machine I thought I would check for the candy bar among the other candy bars in the coils. And here is the weird thing, that made me glad I didn’t eat the candy bar, THE M&M CANDY BAR ISN’T EVEN AN OPTION TO BUY!! So the vending machine in which I found the candy bar doesn’t even sell the candy bar. So where did it come from? Was it a clever marketing ploy by Mars to get people to try out their new candy bar? do they instruct the vending machine man to strategically place the candy bars where they will be found by unsuspecting, hungry law students, or am I being paranoid again? I feel manipulated, or something. Any thoughts?
I thought I had won
