vending comes to mind, it is defined as being for vending machines.

In any case, you should use semi-colons to separate multiple values. And 
semi-colon separated lists (here we go again) should be avoided (especially in 
new tagging schemes) in favour of namespaced tags.

I vaguely remember an argument for things like vending:food:bread=yes.

So, in combination with duck tagging, a shop selling mainly fruit and vegs 
would become something like
shop=grocery
vending:bread=yes
vending:cheese=yes
vending:fruit=yes
vending:vegetables=yes

And the scale model shop
shop=model
vending:scale_model_kits=yes
service:scale_model:repair=yes (following the bicycle scheme)
second_hand=yes (that is an approved tag: 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:second_hand)

For bicycle shops, there are already tags to describe this, see 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dbicycle.
