Who doesn't like to be surprised? In Linz, you can now buy an undelivered parcel for ten euros from a so-called Secret Pack vending machine - it could contain anything. "Krone" editor Anna Jaschek dared to try it out for herself. Find out what was in her parcel in the Krone+ video.

Who hasn't experienced it: back when you were at primary school, waiting at the checkout in the supermarket, nudging mom or dad to maybe put a surprise egg in the shopping cart with a doting look. The thrill of receiving something you don't know what it is beforehand is still as strong as ever. Currently mainly in the form of secret pack or mystery pack machines.
