Vending Machine Undies
- Share via
Joe Boxer, the New York company notorious for its outrageous undies and ad campaigns, is at it again, this time with a vending machine that taunts passersby.
“Looks like you need some underwear,” it teases, the voice activated by motion sensors.
The vending machines, which sell boxer shorts and tees packaged in pop-top cans, are operated with a credit card. Once the transaction is complete, the customer is applauded or treated to some other game show-type sound effect.
Before the end of the year, Joe Boxer hopes to have 10 machines in place--all of them in New York. But in 1999, the company will roll out 100 more of the wisecracking panty peddlers, placing them in train stations, health clubs and airports across the country.
