McDonald's will now accept selfies and hugs as payment

Okay, this is completely out of the realm of things i like to talk about but i figured I'd bring you up to speed with this new marketing strategy adapted by one of the world's leading franchises.

I know, you, just like I, was probably hoping that 'selfies' and 'lols' would be a thing of the past in this year but as times are changing and so must we adapt to the current trends, somehow.

So McDonald's is going to start accepting a new form of payment.
Starting Feb. 2, the chain will let some customers pay for their food with different forms of what the chain calls "lovin'," which could include selfies and hugs.

"From selfies, hugs to high fives — we have a bunch of fun ways to express your Lovin'," a McDonald's spokeswoman said.

Customers who order items during preselected times will get to participate in the deal. McDonald's employees will let customers know if they get to "Pay with Lovin'."

The company is announcing the promotion, which will run until Feb. 14, in an ad that will air during the Super Bowl.
