Snapchat Spectacles Come to the Chicago Burbs



The Snapchat Spectacles vending machine has been making its way across the US in recent weeks, and it has just made its first stop in Illinois.

The "Snapbot" has set up shop at Dave & Buster's in Orland Park at 49 Orland Park Pl.

Our reporter Karis Hustad was on the scene and managed to snag a pair.

The glasses cost $130, and they've been available in limited quantities (so far the only way to buy them has been at brief pop ups around the US.)

Did you manage to snag a pair? Let us know!
