Pot vending machines take root in L.A. -Machines distribute the drug to people with cards authorizing use - The Associated Press -updated 4:01 a.m. PT, Wed., Jan. 30, 2008
LOS ANGELES - The city that popularized the fast food drive-thru has a new innovation: 24-hour medical marijuana vending machines. At least three dispensaries in the city have installed vending machines to distribute the drug to people who carry cards authorizing marijuana use.
It took seven months to develop and patent the black, armored box, which he calls the "PVM," or prescription vending machine. The computerized machine requires fingerprint identification and a prepaid card with a magnetic stripe. Once the card and fingerprint are verified, a bright green envelope with the pot drops down a slot.Any user approved for medical marijuana and registered in a computer database at his dispensaries can pre-purchase the drug and then use the machine to pick up.
With the advice of doctors, there is a limit to the amount of marijuana per user to an ounce per week. Each purchase from the machine yields 1/8th or 2/8th of an ounce. By eliminating a vendor behind the counter, he said, the machine offers users lower drug prices. The 1/8th ounce packet would cost about $40 — $20 lower than the average price at other dispensaries.
