I always enjoy hearing about people who are thinking outside of the box when it comes to marketing. Although every crazy idea isn't a hit, I commend them for trying and you know know when one will be a home run.

    Personally, I would kiss 1:42 all day!

    I get it completely. Brilliant promotion. I wish I could adapt it to my retail store.
    But it sure looks like a great idea for a cafe or restaurant...as long as it's a couple.

    If I'm with my friend Howard...I'll pay for the coffee.

    What if they're not stars? What if they are holes poked in the top of a container so we can breath?

    At $3.50 a cup, I'd find someone to kiss.

    Claude,
    Maybe two for one on vacuum belts or bags if they kiss?

      I was actually thinking about it. I think it would be a little creepy if I asked people to kiss for something free. But I get the french waiter, couples in a cafe...thing.

      It would be a lot better if someone was filming it. Can you imagine being a waiter in a restaurant...nobody else is there except you and a couple...and you tell them that if they let you watch them kiss..you'll give them coffee for free? A little creepy.

      My first though was "What do we have to do to get our drinks paid for?".

        That scenario - nobody else there - is a bit creepy. The thing does kind of hinge on the personality of the waiter and rapport with the customers. Ditto if you tried that in your shop.

    Do you think it would be creepy if I hung around between 9-11? Ya know - just in case some poor girl came in alone and wanted a free coffee!?
