Wait - Am I Shopping In The Future?

I don't shop at the mall too often these days. I do have a really pretty mall just 10 minutes from my house with all sorts of fabulous stores. The problem is I don't like crowds and I don't like to spend a lot of money! :)

I should go in more often - then I wouldn't be so surprised by everything. We happened to go into Macy's and hubby wanted to look in the men's section. We rounded a corner and what did we find? Had we gone through a time warp into the future?


Why yes, that is an electronics vending machine! What would you like today - ipod, earbuds, or an electronic bookreader? Quick and easy shopping for the man on the go - LOL!


Hey now - don't let that kid buy anything!

Have you seen these vending machines around? Or do I need to take you on a tour of our futuristic mall?

Have a great day and be sure to come back tomorrow for Chocolate Friday! You can link up your own chocolate posts!

    I haven't seen one of those. But then again, I live an hour from the closest mall. Aliens could move in there and I would never know. Wait, the last time I was in there, it did look like aliens had moved in ;)

    Take care my friend!
    Hope you have a great Thursday!

    I saw one of those in an airport recently...I think Chicago/O'Hare. I didn't buy anything though.

    I once saw a vending machine for proactiv. I was so taken aback, I took about 20 pictures. My husband was mortified and didn't see the big deal. :-)

    Well that's a new one! lol Nope, haven't seen one! My husband would like it, though - he hates dealing with people. :-)

    I saw one of those at the airport last week and was totally amazed too! Like I would spend that kind of money in a vending machine... But I guess people must, lol.

    I've never seen a vending machine like that. I bet things cost more the 5o cents though ;-)

    I have to say I have never seen an ipod vending machine!! Remember when we used to watch the Jetsons and laugh, "Ha ha! That'll never happen!" Now we have automatic vacuums, video calling, and electronics vending machines!

    SO did you buy one??

    Oh, wow.. I can't even think when was the last time I went TO a mall??? Well, I've certainly never seen an ipod vending machine. I don't think I'd buy one out of it, either - I'd want to go home, comparison shop, read customer reviews.. I'm picky that way. =)
