Can I buy you a drink?

Feeling thirsty? From now on a friend or a mysterious stranger could be on hand to help you out. PepsiCo has introduced a “social vending system”, a digital vending machine with an interactive touchscreen display. The system lets users buy a drink as a gift for a friend and personalise it with a video message. The user enters their friend’s name and mobile phone number and they receive a text message with a gift code to redeem at a vending machine, where they can view the video. Social vending also allows you to buy a drink for a stranger using its “random acts of refreshment” function.
