What if Foursqaure check-ins from Nokia phone or NFC tags from the same give you more than just what you think – an interesting free stuff.

That’s what Nokia Gift Machine is doing at the Mall of the Emirates (MoE), Dubai. This is one of the three machines around the globe and it is an opportunity for the residents in Dubai to win exciting free stuff like movie tickets, chocolates and much more.

All you have to do is to check-in at the Nokia Gift Machine at MoE and share it with your friends with the hashtag #NokiaGifts ‘OR’ if your Nokia phone is NFC-enabled then you just have to tap your device on the machine and it will pop out the gift for you.

The idea of social vending machines is quite unique, you will not see this kind of advertising or promotions everywhere around the globe. We believe that the companies should utilize their social media like Facebook, Foursquare and Twitter in this way to promote their stuff. What is your say about it?
