Kellogg is trying out tweets as currency with its new pop-up shop in London. As The Next Web reports, people can go to the pop-up to buy Kellogg’s new crisps for the price of a tweet mentioning the Kellogg crisp and using the designated hashtag #tweetshop.

People get some essentially free stuff, and brands get social media engagement — it’s a win-win situation.
