There are some promotional items that are very normal, whilst there are other products that are absolutely CRAZY! This particular selfie stick is definitely the type of product that I would call crazy. What is it? It is a Selfie Stick that is attached to the back of a spoon.

Marketing Campaign By a Cereal Company

This particular effort is by an American company that creates a breakfast cereal called "Cinnamon Toast Crunch."

What is It? A Selfie Stick & a Spoon!

It is a selfie stick of course silly, but with a notable difference. This Blue Tooth enabled selfie stick is stuck to the end of a spoon...... and you guessed it, the aim of this marketing campaign is to have customers take pictures of themselves whilst they are munching down cereal.

Everyone loves selfies, and everyone (most people I know) love cereals, so this is a match made in heaven.

Why I love It

This is why I love this promo item.

  • I love how General Mills (the company behind the cereal) is giving it away for free, you only pay shipping and handling.
  • I love how I can squint into a camera early in the morning with a sleepy smile to share with the world.
  • I love how I can potentially choke on milk and cereal whilst I stare up into the camera whilst i am eating
  • I love how my spoon needs to be weighed down by the weight of my Smartphone (which is not the size of a tablet) to exercise my forearms
  • but most of all, I love sharing to the world semi-chewed food shoved down my throat.

This is a truly lovely promotional item. If you would like to watch the accompanying clip to this product then check out this You Tube Clip.
