Should spill out more items/cash during the process
That way you can get stuff when you're desperate and have no cash, at the risk of having the machine fall on you

This could be neat, yeah. Absolutely should have a chance to fall over and crush you, or electrocute you from broken electronics, or cause you to bleed after you punch some broken glass in the vending machine.
On a related note, a small chance for items to get stuck in the vending machine would be hilariously annoying, requiring a few good hits to shake it loose and possibly causing it to fall on you in the process.

Maybe have unused credits in a vending machine get ejected after 30 seconds with no purchases? You can still eject it manually, of course.

The vending machine tips over!

Eh, people sometimes leave credits in medical vendors so that people won't get screwed out of healing cause they're poor and/or were robbed.
Just seems like a way to discourage people being helpful.
