Annoying Lenor advert

Post by Bludall »

Am I the only one who finds the Lenor advert annoying? Surely the use of super concentrated fabric conditioner will mean job cuts for lorry drivers if fewer lorries are needed to deliver the smaller bottles. That's not a good thing for the economy because there'd be a loss in road tax and fuel tax. Who would the government have to 'shaft' then, the rest of us poor s*ds?

I find lots of adverts annoying. Especially the ones for brighthouse :angryfire:

I was always brought up that if I could not afford something I had to do without it!

Cillit bang is also very annoying :cussing:

UHM,

That annoying bloke ::b who SHOUTS on the Cillit Bang advert must be mad if he thinks we'll buy it.

Is Brighthouse the one where goods are probably twice the normal price? :scratch: That's just catering for today's generation though, everything has to be 'here and now' not saved for like we were taught to do.

The 'Boswellox' skin stuff adverts crack us up because we think of the Boswell family on Bread! :lol:

I don't think we have any near us. We used to have a pawn brokers' shop that actually went out of business! Times must have been bad.

There is one in Accrington, which is about 15 mins drive away from me. Accrington also has three pound shops.

We live in an ex-mining area and they seem to think that all we want are foreign take away shops and £1 shop type places, we're surrounded by msg and tat! :lol:

If you are a member of Freecycle, you'll notice that the two favourite give away items are 2 to 3 year old DFS sofas and Dyson vacuum cleaners! :lol:

You should remember that adverts are made for the advertising managers' image of the general public, i.e. thickos with an IQ below 50.
