Want a Big Mac? Of course you do (assuming you eat meat). If you live in the Boston area, you’ll have a chance to get a free Big Mac next week from the most unexpected of sources – an ATM.
According to Metro Boston, the ATM will be active on January 31st from 11 AM until either 2 PM or supplies last. The ATM will dispense Big Macs in three different sizes – the Mac Jr (single patty), the standard Big Mac, and the new Grand Mac, which comes with larger buns and patties.
The magic — or secret sauce, if you will — of the Big Mac ATM comes from its ability to pop out burgers without any visible staff or kitchen attached to the unit. Just pick the Big Mac of your choice the machine’s touchscreen, Tweet out your swag (you’ve gotta pay somehow) and *BOOM* free burger.
When asked how exactly this will be pulled off, we received the following response via Vincent Spadea, local McDonald’s owner/operator, “We can’t give away all the secrets, but fresh Macs will be constantly loaded into the machine to ensure a high quality experience.”
Hmmmm. I’m intrigued by this, and wish to subscribe to the McDonald’s newsletter.
Yeah, you can get a much better burger than a Big Mac for lunch, but are those burgers free, coming out of an ATM? I don’t think so. This is more about the novelty than the burger itself, but hey, there’s nothing wrong with that every once in awhile.
