Also, I believe those machines shut down after a certain hour, too. Not sure about that, as I don't drink alcohol (though the Japanese tried everything to get me to drink, I would at most have a small sip for the kampai then switch to non-alcoholic stuff.)

They shut down at 11PM, at least in Kansai. And now you need an ID to buy smokes from a cigarette machine. Not sure if you need it for the beer machines, too. If so, how are the homeless guys going to buy their One Cup Ozeki?
