Las Vegas was built on convenience. So it’s no surprise this town seems to have a vending machine for anything and everything. Here are a few that caught our attention.

🍪 Cookie Shots

The Dominique Ansel bakery at Caesars Palace has an automated, robotic vending machine that prepares Cookie Shots on the spot with Madagascan vanilla milk poured into a cookie shaped like a shot glass. The price is $8.99 and you can order one 24/7 with the touch of your phone.

🥿 Shoes

Regret is something we all live with in Las Vegas. If you’re wearing a new pair of heels to a club, dinner, or show, you probably can’t wait to get ‘em off as soon as possible. That’s why Rollasole sells pairs of black ballet-style flats (and a high heel carrying bag) at 18 locations throughout Vegas, including the Grand Canal Shoppes, Drai’s, and of course, Chippendales. It could be the best $20 you spend all night.

🎨 Art

Art comes in many forms. You can even buy it “to go.” Art-o-Mat vending machines are scattered throughout the first three floors of the Cosmopolitan with original artwork dispensed from repurposed vintage cigarette machines. Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart at AREA 15 has a Mega Art Zone next to the box office with two vending machines that offer small-format pieces by local artists.

🍰 Cake

The “Cake Boss” Buddy Valastro is becoming an omnipresent culinary force in Las Vegas with three restaurants, a bakery, and at last count, 13 Carlo’s Bakery Express vending machines throughout the tourist corridor. The cake slices are huge and come in flavors like red velvet, carrot, and chocolate fudge for $9.70. Look for a machine in places like The LINQ, Horseshoe, and Convention Center. There’s even two at Harry Reid International Airport.

✈️ The airport is actually a hub for fun vending machines, which also dispense Sprinkles Cupcakes, Daisy Cakes (in a cup), Kylie Cosmetics, Legos, and more. And that’s just the beginning of the beautiful weirdness at Harry Reid International Airport. [City Cast Las Vegas 🎧]
