Nestlé Puts GPS Trackers in Candy Bars for Golden Ticket Style Contest Willy Wonka would be proud
Nestlé's "We Will Find You" campaign sounds more like a threat than a
marketing stunt, but it's not quite as Orwellian as the name would
imply. Six Nestlé chocolate-bar wrappers in the U.K. have been outfitted
with GPS trackers that activate when the wrappers are opened,
at which point Nestlé's prize team pinpoints your whereabouts, swoops
in and gives you £10,000. See, that's not too scary. The idea, enacted
with help from JWT London, is being compared to Willy Wonka's golden
tickets, minus the part where you tour a candy factory and eat food
prototypes that could disfigure or kill you. For its part, Nestlé
believes the effort "will particularly appeal to men." Your guess is as
good as mine on that one.
