The Mondrian South Beach hotel has a unique vending machine that sells everything from away from home staples like toothbrushes to luxury goods – like a Bentley Arnage. The fancy retail machine, called a Semi-Automatic stocks a list of over the top items including golden handcuffs, land and condos. For anything that can’t fit inside the vast, auto-mat-like contraption, customers trade in a voucher at the front desk to receive their goods. Though the ultra high-end nature of this machine is a bit questionable and gimmicky, the concept behind it is interesting.
