If you like vending machines you might be interested in a facebook contest called Vend.Love.Win., which the National Automatic Vending Association just launched earlier this month. The contest is simple to join (and win!) and it gives entrants the opportunity to win money for themselves or their favorite local charity!

All users have to do is upload a creative photo or video that includes their favorite vending machine or vended product, along with a short description explaining why they love it. On the last day of each month, the top 20 entries with the most votes will each win $200 for a charity of their choice or a $200 Visa gift card for themselves to spend as they wish. They’re also giving away a $5,000 annual prize for the absolute BEST entry before March 30, 2012.
