I see two options for this one. We would want some lights to surround/point at the fridge. Leds with a breadboard and raspberry pi would work here. Then we could potentially have a motion sensor at the front door that when it goes off turns on the fridge lights for a certain amount of time, to draw the customers attention. We could instead put the motion sensor closer the the to-go fridge that way when someone walks by it, it will light up possibly drawing their attention. Can set a delay so it doesn't go off too often.
Another cool way to go about this could be having the lights somehow connected to the cash register area. So when a customer is checking out the fridge lights up and reminds them they want to take some beer home.

Description There is a to-go fridge that can easily be missed by customers entering/leaving. This will be modified with a light up sign or LED's to draw the customers attention to the fridge reminding them that it is an option. Connect this to the motion sensor on the front doors via raspberry pi, and it will light up the fridge on customer entry.
