Situation: I am sitting on a couch while having a vending machine in my twelve o'clock direction and several chairs on my right.
Alternative situations: Having bought soda and chips in a vending machine in front of me, I am sitting on a couch and waiting for anyone to come in from the door in my one o'clock direction. I am seated on the couch while taking a drink from the vending machine in front of it.
Question: What can I use the vending machine in front of me if I wanted to buy chips?
