In my opinion, the simplest yet one of the most effective card colour change is achieved by a simple DL and snapping the top card into revelation. The Vending Machine Subtlety utilizes this technique and the fact that the vending machines reject any foreign note-like objects inserted into the notes slot. Therefore, instead of snapping the top card into revelation (colour change into the selected card, etc.) the conjuror can insert the card into the notes slot to achieve the same, if not more startling, effect. It is obvious that the presence of a vending machine is warranted, and the performer's ability to identify its presence within the performing environment and use it in the course of his magic routines make his magic organic and nothing short of a miracle. This effect can be strengthened if the selection is signed and the deck is borrowed.
