Cebu’s Unique ATMs
While driving around Cebu, I could not help but notice these types found along the sidewalks:
At first, the boyfriend said that they were loading machines or something, but I didn’t believe him. They were everywhere! I tried snapping photos while inside a moving cab but I never got a clear shot – just a bunch of blurry ones. The driver (who doubled as our tour guide) finally told us what they were: ATMs – Automatic Tubig Machines!
Cebuanos need not go thirsty – there were water stations all over the place. I daresay there’s more of them than there are sari-sari stores. Hehe. You drop coins in, take a plastic cup, and have yourself some cool water. I didn’t get to try it though.
This particular ATM in the picture is located just outside the Matutinao Elementary School in Badian, south of Cebu. Even three hours away from the city, these ATMs exist!

Mukha naman safe sya, purified/distilled water naman unless nirerefill lang nila ng tap water? Yung iba may tatak talaga or parang owned by water refilling stations.
Thanks for stopping by Happy! 🙂
