How far would you go for a freebie?

A great advertisting campaign showing how far some people would go for a freebie (in Adelaide)! I think most Ozbargainers could identify with this… in fact I'm sure some people caught in the video probably are members!

So, how many times would you have pushed the button?

    I saw this gizmo operating in the mall on June 15 (I may even be in the clip!). I think it is very smart marketing and promotion. You can also play the machine online, all it takes is 99 mouse clicks rather than 2000 to get your box of goodness! http://www.fantasticdelites.com.au/

    screw pushing a button 5000 times.

  • Is that in Brisbane queen st mall? If not it looks very similar

    • No, Adelaide Rundle Mall

  • When was this? I never saw it :(

  • Heh during the 7-eleven Kit Kat promo, I used to do the Kit Kat runs - mapped out all the 7-eleven while to and from work…I've done the same when they were giving out free sandwiches and coke. Ate them for breakfast and lunch over a month. I've lost count how many sandwiches I've eaten during that period.

    See how much satisfaction the woman got from pressing the button 5,000 times? She earned her prize.

    Oh, and I would have pressed it more than 100 times, but less than 5,000.
