    Their ISA "don;t pay the tax on your interest "ads use to bug me..Especiaslly when they didnt even pay any interest..Got caught off by the scam that if you dont trasnsfer to another type of account after a year your interest rate is reduced to half a % or even lower..Standard practice nowadays..Review your Isa Account inteterst rate every year with this l;ot!

    The Fosters and Paddy Power ads are probably the best.

    Fosters ads are class,

    Bird: "How do I look?"
    Bloke: "Fit!"

    And he even points at her for emphasis, champion.

    Too bad its a crap beer.

    why has no one mentioned gillette, pringles and kfc ??????? some companies have a great product (or not) that sells well on the strength of its quality regardless of ads. so some muppet in the ad game puts out a pi55 poor and highly irritating ad but thinks they are a genius as the product is selling ,although it was already selling. this has lead to the saturation of very very poor ads.

    Whilst we are on ad's - interesting article here

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-13344575

    I liked the Irn Bru ad, and the Paddy Power one - least this shows that the ASA arent pandering to Mail reading Mary Whitehouse's.

    Yes - sub section 2

    But I must admit that I really don't care that much to be honest (and please don't take that the wrong way). All I know is that I have no money with either institution. Well, to be honest, I have no money full stop ...... Sorry .....

    The fecking Gillette ad? Woo hello buddy? I'd slash him with my mach 3 "turbo" (ffs) if he walked in and did that while I'm dragging a razor blade up and down my neck. Has anyone ever shaved in public? I certainly haven't.

    £20 for a pack of fusion blades too. :shock: How good can it be?

    My new hatred is for the Sky ads "OK, this is x and y.....". Why the hell do they need to start off with "OK" in them???? :x

    New VW Passat ad - with the Star Wars theme booming out and the kid dressed up as Darth Vadar....v.funny.

    Won't be dashing out to buy a VW Passat mind.

    +1 but I suspect it will get over played until we are all fed up with it!
