McDonald’s to let some lucky customers pay with hugs, kind words
The promotion is limited to US stores and their ad is among this year's Super Bowl commercials

MANILA, Philippines – McDonald’s will be allowing a different kind of payment for their food over the next two weeks. 

From February 2 to 14, selected lucky customers will get to “Pay with Lovin’” instead of paying for their meals in cash, according to the commercial they ran during Super Bowl XLIX. (READ: IN PHOTOS: Katy Perry in fabulous Super Bowl halftime show)

In the video, some customers got to pay for their food by doing random positive things: calling loved ones to say “I love you,” dancing, hugging people, taking selfies, “raising the roof,” fist bumps, and more. The promo will only run in McDonald’s stores in the United States from 6 am to 6 pm.

 

Asked whether similar plans might be rolled out for McDonald’s in the Philippines, Adi Timbol, the brand’s PR and communications manager, said: “We have no plans at the moment to adapt this in the Philippines, but our customers can lookforward to equally exciting programs in the near future.” – Rappler.com
