In ''Mario Party 2'', there is one Item Shop run by a red-shelled [[Koopa Troopa]] on each board. These shops have between two and five items for sale at a time, depending on the player's placement (between 1st and 4th place) and how many turns are left in the game, divided between the first 5 turns, the mid-game, and the last 5 turns. Generally, the lower-placed the player is and the later in the game the current turn is, the more valuable and greater in number the offered items will be. All items sold at the Item Shop cost at least 10 coins, and if the player does not have at least 10 coins when they pass by, or if they are already carrying an item, they will not be allowed to enter the shop. Additionally, the Item Shop closes on the last turn of the game, preventing any more items from being purchased.

Like in ''Mario Party 2'', the particular selection of items available depends on the player's placement and the number of turns left in the game, once a shopkeeper is selected. Similarly to the previous game, more valuable items in greater numbers are generally offered to players in lower places, and as the game progresses. The player will be denied entry to an Item Shop if they have fewer than 5 coins, are already carrying the capacity of 3 items, or if it is the last turn.

On the Extra Room boards, [[Mega Board Mayhem]] and [[Mini Board Mad-Dash]], Item Shops work differently from normal. While they still offer a "selection" of five items, all five of these items are always of the same type, chosen from [[Warp Pipe]]s, [[Sparky Sticker]]s, [[Super Mega Mushroom]]s, and [[Super Mini Mushroom]]s. If the player visits an Item Shop on one of these boards while carrying between 5 and 9 coins, five Warp Pipes will be offered, but the player will not be able to purchase any of them as they cost 10 coins.

===''Mario Party DS''===

In ''Mario Party DS'', there are two Item Shops on each board, run by a [[Monty Mole]]. Four items are sold at a time, and more valuable items generally become available as the game progresses. This is linked to the turn number (regardless of how many turns are remaining), as certain items such as [[Block Sensor]]s and [[Grab Bag (item)|Grab Bag]]s are only sold during the later turns of a 20-, 25- or 30-turn game. Like in ''Mario Party 4'', at least one item that the player can afford is always sold (for example, if the player has only 1 coin, a [[Halfway Dice Block]] will be offered, since it costs 1 coin). Unlike in any previous ''Mario Party'' title, any number of items may be purchased during a single visit to an Item Shop, and shops may be entered and purchased from even if the player is carrying the capacity of three items. If the player purchases an item in excess of the three-item limit, they will be forced to throw away one of their items. Item Shops may not be entered if the player does not have any coins or if it is the last turn.

In ''Super Mario Party'', there are two Item Shops on each board run by a [[Flutter]], except for [[Kamek's Tantalizing Tower]], which only has one. These Item Shops always offer three items, and the player can purchase up to one item per visit. Unlike in previous ''Mario Party'' titles, Item Shops always offer the same selection of items, and different Item Shops on the same board have different selections available.

On the board [[Kamek's Tantalizing Tower]], there is a secondary Item Shop run by a [[Toady]] called the '''Shady Shop'''. When this shop is visited, the Toady will forcibly sell the player a [[Dash Mushroom]], Poison Mushroom, or [[Custom Dice Block]] for 6 coins. Whenever an item is bought from Toady, it will disappear from the stock until each item has been bought once, then the shop is refilled again.

Most boards have two or more shops, but [[Roll 'em Raceway]] and [[Mario's Rainbow Castle]] only have one shop on the board at a time. On those boards, the shop switches between Koopa Troopa and Kamek based on specific events. The Cellular Shopper returns in this game, but it can only call Koopa Troopa's shop.

On [[Rainbow Galleria]], Kamek's shop is a One-Coin Shop, offering all of its wares for only one coin. In addition, most of the [[Event Space]]s act as additional shops.
