2. Gopuff and The Fat Jewish want consumers to ‘get out and go puff’

Digital delivery service Gopuff says there’s nothing more patriotic than celebrating 4/20. To rally consumers to get as blazed as possible today, the brand has tapped influencer Joshua Ostrovsky, also known as The Fat Jewish, in a campaign riffing on ‘I Voted Today’ campaigns: ‘I Puffed Today.’

Today, New Yorkers can visit an IRL ‘puffing place‘ (like a polling place) van with privacy booths (à la voting booths) inside. The van will hit the streets of Manhattan, and move throughout the day from Washington Square Park to Astor Place, to Union Square and up to Bryant Park. Inside the booths will be a QR code for visitors to scan and receive a discount code to use on Gopuff’s munchies assortment page.

Joe Hegyes and Andrew Muscarella, hosts of the Good Children podcast, will be on-site to interview people “man on the street” style and give away Gopuff ‘I Puffed Today’ stickers, lighters, rolling papers and snacks. The work was ideated and developed with The Times.

The campaign prompts consumers to visit www.FindBic.com to locate the lighter (Spoiler alert: it‘s in Weed, California) for a chance to win merchandise signed by Willie, Snoop and Stewart. The campaign was co-created by agencies M Booth, Doner CX and Merkley+Partners.
