Boost Mobile has bus-stop paper shredders
Boost Mobile may be trying to atone for recent sins (the
pigs-eating-ham commercial, for one thing) with this neat little
public-service offering: live paper shredders at bus stops in Chicago
and Boston, where you can shred your existing phone-company contracts
(or, presumably, anything that implicates you in a Ponzi scheme). Ad
agency 180LA created the shredders, which are one of three new bus-stop
executions for the brand. The other two seem a bit less useful—a big
hose and an extra-large screw, to remind the public that they can get
unhose'd and unscrew'd with Boost.
