New Zealand's first cannabis club has installed a vending machine to dispense the drug.
The Daktory club in West Auckland has been using the machine to avoid any members being charged with dealing the drug.
The hired vending machine, usually filled with toys or confectionery, sells one-gram bags of cannabis for ÂŁ10.
The Daktory opened in November 2008, but closed again last year after its founder Dakta Green was jailed for possessing, selling and allowing the warehouse to be used for drug taking.
It has since been used as the headquarters for the National Organisation for the Reform of Marijuana Laws.
Norml president Julian Crawford confirmed the Daktory club was again open for business and said the vending machine had been a hit with guests.
Waitemata police said the club was being monitored as part of "normal routine policing".
