Are TV/Radio Commercials Effective to you...............

[King Hippos Bandaid]

All this $$$$$ spent on Advertising, and commercials are only effective to me in 1 way

New items....


If I see a commercial for a new item, I want to get the new item....



as far as a Coke or Pepsi Commercial I like Pepsi, no Coke commercial will sway me


as far as a Brawny Paper Towel commercial, I get what the supermarket has on Sale, no matter which brand, that commercial does nothing for me......



What commercials (if any) effect your shopping and spending habits........

the only thing i've ever seen in a commercial and ran out to try is fast food.

first time i saw that gimmicky phillie cheese steak burger at hardees on tv i was at my hardees 10 minutes later.

[Dude!]

i would never have thought about
buying a Kia Sorento
but their super bowl ad
is so awesome and brilliant
that i want to reward them
by buying a car

[Dude!]

also
gimme that fish
always sends me out
to buy the 2 for $3
mcdonalds filet-o-fish

horribly annoying ads
yet incredibly effective

[FUNKMAN]

think I can say for certain I bought 1 product I saw or heard advertised. It was from Sears and it's the drill bit that should allow you to remove a screw that's head has been stripped...

did not work

It's ALWAYS about a Chalupa commercial with you.

I agree. Taco Bell gets me EVERY time!:help:

Yeah, commercials have gotten me to try a few of Taco Bell's new products, like the Black Jack Taco. Which was actually pretty damn tasty.

[lleeder]

I think I agree with you completely when it comes to new products. I tend to be swayed by most sales and or coupons. If i see something I don't usually use I'll try to pick it up if its on sale and I have a coupon. Then I'll find a use for it. Yes I'm a stay at home Mr. Mom.

I never watch live TV. Everything I watch is recorded, so I never see commercials.

[Devo37]

i never buy any of them, but i'll watch any stupid infomercial for kitchen/cooking gadgets.

[Recyclerz]

The really effective commercials slip right through your active window into your subconscious. Go look in your refrigerator, cabinets, driveway, etc. and see how many things you really did a cost benefits analysis on before you bought it.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go find an internet site where I can find some pennystocks to chase so I can strike it rich on Wall St.


do do do do, do do do do.

[STC-Dub]

They effect me but usually negatively. If I hate a commercial I will not buy the product.

[PapaBear]

If I hate a commercial I will not buy the product.
That's how I am about Cold Stone Creamery commercials.
