KitKat uses slave-labour in a vending machine
Posted on 28. Sep, 2010 by Jonathan Cherry in Totally Whack
Look – times are tough, and electronic circuitry just isn’t what it used to be – so what are you to do?
KitKat bypassed the issues by simply putting a human inside one of their vending machines and turning that into a PR opportunity.
We all know how it feels to need a break from the routine of working like a machine.
This is why KitKat brought the latest crazy trend from Japan over to the UK by installing a human vending machine in Londons busy Victoria Station. Commuters were treated to a break from the everyday grind by being given a chance to buy a KitKat for 20p, but from a machine with a real difference! Thousands did, thousands more had their day brightened, and all the money went to charity. You never know where this machine might appear next.
Makes perfect sense to us. Most human are seriously under-rated as a mechanical vending device anyway. Put the fat bastards to work.

I want to know how many times he got the order wrong… And if people rocked the machine from side to side if a KitKat got stuck on the way out…
