Champagne Vending Machine Pops Up A Philly Ritz-Carlton: Reports

PHILADELPHIA — If you thought the Philadelphia Ritz-Carlton couldn't get any ritzier (pun intended), you were wrong.
The hotel's newest feature is a champagne vending machine.
According to the Philly Voice, a Moët Mini-matic vending machine with two different kinds of bubbly is in the hotel's lobby.

But you can't just waltz in and buy a bottle with cash or a card: you need a special coin only available at the hotel's bar, Aqimero, to get a bottle.
Another caveat is the vending machine is only operational during bar hours, 6 a.m. to 2 a.m.
