Sweeter than Cash!

We aren't "The Jetson's" yet (for those of you who are familiar with the space age family cartoon) but I felt like it yesterday when visiting the Sprinkles cupcake shop off Michigan Avenue...Now you don't have to wait in the traditional bakery line...you can simply use their Cupcake ATM located conveniently outside the store...
 
First you scroll through the various flavors available...and the choices are many!
 
After you make your selection you swipe your credit card...


 and you get to view a rather entertaining process of the cupcake being brought to you through a sophisticated mechanical operation....
 


and "voila" you have a cupcake to go....


I think they are on to something....I still prefer getting cash from an ATM but this was convenient and FUN!

    Reminds me of the OLD AUTOMATS IN NEW YORK CITY IN THE 40'S AND 50'S!
    Worked 60 years ago, why not now????

  2. I haven't seen that before - now all we need is one that dispenses wine!
