Tesco Homeplus ‘Virtual Supermarket’

July 18, 2011 by Luke Norris

As part of a campaign by advertising agency Cheil, train commuters in Seoul can now grocery shop while they wait for their train to arrive at the platform. A large billboard was installed along the platform, recreating a Tesco Homeplus supermarket with each item marked with a QR code. By scanning the codes onto their smartphones, commuters are able to add the item into their shopping cart online and after purchase, will be delivered to their homes. Genius!

As cool as the latest Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s are. There’s still something about classic sports cars that speaks style and taste. Steve McQueen was know for these two things. So I can imagine this car will draw a lot of potential buyers and spectators. The cherry red Siata has recently been completely refurbished, now sporting a 2.0-liter V8 producing 115 horsepower. I’m sold off the photos.
