Familiar with the "Got Milk?" ads? The people at Arcade Marketing just took the ad campaign to a new level. Using a new technology called "Magniscent" they made scented bus shelters. "what goes better with chocolate chip cookies than a big glass of cold milk?" The idea was to attract people's attention using the scent which is emitted from a special adhesive strips that has the aroma of chocolate chip cookies. Great smelling bus shelters are the new trend! A relief from that bad body odour from the person next to you while waiting for your bus!
