La_Dolce_Vita Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I used to HATE that short jingle for Robinsons: "Robinsons, at Shoprite Supermarket" Fresh is best, forget the rest, go to Robinsons, at Shoprite Supermarket... Hahaha, that properly made me giggle. I had forgotten the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaipyr Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Wasnt the adverts outsourced to the Uk?Not surprised with the amount of furriners working at the station. Some ad agency in Blackpool wasn't it? Why didn't MR 'shop local' - there's plenty of talent here capable of producing better ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaipyr Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Most hated - that garage door one 'I'll do it so long as you warm me up afterwards' - I want to kill them both - him for letting her get out in the rain to open it, and her for her wheedling whiny voice. Callows yard seems to be shorter, so that's a relief. Prize for the most economical must be St Paul's Bookshop ad from last Christmas - it's been running all year.

Tempus Fugit Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 most hated are the ones who advertise something but don't tell you where they are, and that applies to newspaper ads as well, hairdressers or restauraunts seem to be the worst offenders, which is odd as they presumably expect people to actually find them !

Pacesetter "Quality----economy" been running the same add for donkeys. Maybe it's just me but some adds are so bad they actually make me stop shopping there. Told you it was just me.

sarahc Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Oh thanks very much. The whole Quality/Economy tune is in my head now, including that bit with the Hawaiian guitar. Country tastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theodolite Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Callow's Yard I quite like this advert despite all the criticism levelled at it. Here's a copy for the iPod: Callows_Yard_002.mp3 Quick low quality download: Callows_Yard_002_1.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
