The Old Improbable Island Wiki

The Vending Emporium is the city's equivalent of a shopping mall. Travelers can find all manner of vending machines peddling an array of trinkets, at prices that vary from the affordable to the outrageous. But buyer beware! - Many of these machines don't work because the vendors are too lazy to stock them, and also items bought at the emporium come with no warranty and no guarantee.¹⁾

If you are somehow able to find one of these magical vending machines, congratulations. You have successfully traveled back in time. They don't exist anymore in Season 2.
