Tiffany is the epitome of this phenomenon, to the point that it's named the Tiffany Problem

That's a good read. I would have used my dagger to steal so much holy water. From the videos I watched there was nothing making sure a proper coin was used in the holy water vending machine.

The first known vending machine, created in the 1st century CE by Hero of Alexandria, dispensed holy water. This invention predates the modern concept of vending machines by nearly 2,000 years, making it seem anachronistic in ancient history.[5]

I'm guessing if you accept the water is actually holy, then you'd probably think twice about stealing it

If you steal the holy water and then drink a bunch of it don’t you get Holy powers or something though? Chug the whole thing down then take over the church. Once you have access to all the holy water for free it’s just a matter of time before you become a god yourself.
