TOKYO -- Japanese retailer Don Quijote is making a new play for international visitors, opening its first store set up only with vending machines offering items from instant ramen to personalized name stamps.
The roughly 60-square-meter shop in Tokyo's Shibuya district is packed with 13 vending machines. The space on the first floor of a multi-use building is designed to attract guests at a hotel upstairs as well as shoppers at a full-size Don Quijote discount store on the same floor.
