Good idea, and have someone spray card machines, now that they have almost forced everyone in the country to press the same button with their main finger.

Bacteria seem to love money, especially cotton-based bills. Scientists at Oxford University discovered that the average Bank of England note is home to 18... Read more
Agreed, dunno why some shops still have trolleys that require you to put a pound in them to release them anyways. Most shops grew out of that since they realised the ones found in streams are not put there by people who want to save a quid, but by yobs.
Every 'lift button, trolley & cafe cup' could give you coronavirus, Dorries warns
EVERY lift button, shopping trolley and cafe cup could give Brits coronavirus, infected Health Minister Nadine Dorries warned today. Speaking days after it was confirmed she has caught the deadly d…
Wiping down supermarket trolleys with disinfectant to prevent the spread of COVID-19 may soon be a thing of the past, at least in Belgium, where engineers have come up with a machine that bombards shopping carts with ultraviolet light to sanitise them.

Steve Divnik invented the spiral waterless wishing well amonst other things. I am sure he would approve of this idea especially if your money landed in 1 of say, 4 different holes – which would share the money out between 4 good causes without one being the lucky one that got their wishing well placed in the shopping mall.

ASDA almost nailed this idea, but you have to bag it all up for them. The point was that it would be easy for pensioners to just scan things on the shelf the get on the bus home.

Saw one similar to this, where the doors open to reveal the rest of the ad, clever advertising idea with lots of possibilities for creative advertising agencies.
Advertisers are left with two choices: push the boundaries with even stronger messages, and probably get banned, or come up with some new ground-breaking ideas. A good way to start is to find original places for adverting - like.. elevator.
Elevators are used by millions of people everyday, so it's no wonder that it's important to really utilize elevator ads in a clever way. These days, people tend to ignore advertisements

Not going to happen but good idea – they make sure you don’t have anywhere to off-load unwanted shopping near the tills. And staff know to give you a dirty look as if you are creating more work for someone. Bad manners in the UK, not sure if its the same everywhere.
