"Our goal was to convince skeptics that McDonald's values lovin' more than ever. So we created a program that transformed small acts of lovin' into currency. We surprised real customers by charging them for their meal with anything from a compliment to a hug and captured their reactions to make our Super Bowl commercial, inviting everyone to come pay with their hearts instead of their wallets. Millions of them shared their experiences online, promoting our movement."
