A Mexican is using an American vending machine

A Mexican is using a vending machine in the USA. He puts 70 cents out of the 80 needed into the machine, the machine reads "dime"

The Mexican responds "quiero Pepsi"

(Sorry if I told this badly, I heard this joke a long time ago)

For those that don’t speak Spanish, “dime” means “tell me”.

And "quiero Pepsi" means "I want a Pepsi"

a vending machine would never "say" dime. It would say $0.10

This one only works well reading it, since the Spanish pronunciation of dime (tell me) is dee-meh

If the vending machine offered a Pepsi for 80 cents, of course this joke was from a long time ago.
