    I just saw a political commercial talking about how the government is trying to take away social security. I guess its time for the political commercials to bombard us with a bunch of mess for the next 1 1/2 years. We won't know what is factual and what is fiction.....assuming we know anything...

    They're advertising this product here in Canada that has the seeds embedded into this biodegradable material that allows thousands of flowers to bloom. I was walking through Superstore today and saw that McKenzie is starting to sell their seeds in Seed Rows. It's basically a strip of seeds that...

    There aren't very many commercials I can say I like but I love the Capital One commercials with the Vikings. Do you have a favorite commercial and what is it? Cat

    Here's another laughable commercial. This is for Progressive Auto Insurance. You can see it here: http://www.progressive.com/commercials/progressive-commercials.aspx The commercial is called the "Switch and Save". The idea of saving on car insurance is great. Who wouldn't love lower rates...

    This aired on SNL quite some time ago, and I thought it was so clever. Here's the commercial for a new birth control pill called "Annuale": So, ladies, would you take it? LOL.

    I don't know if everyone has this commercial playing in their area but it makes me laugh everytime it plays. KFC says there is no way you can make their dinner for less than $10 at home. The meal consists of 7 pieces of fried chicken, 4 biscuits and one side order (the one shown is mashed...

    I know commercials can be very regional but does anyone who gets the Ashley furniture commercials 'get' why they have different girls say "Hiieeee, I'm Ashley".....? I mean yeah, Ashley Furniture, girls named Ashley....what I don't get is why some company exec would hire someone to make those...

    OK, stockpile queens, I'd love your input. How long is too long to keep liquid laundry detergent? Opened and unopened? I can't help but think some active ingredients have an expiration. I would also imagine powder has a much longer shelf life. (As a funny aside, when I lived in S Korea a...

    Well I got to see it first hand on our vacation. (not a pretty sight, actually) Gripey was sooooo sick the whole time we were gone, I felt so darn bad for him. He started saying that he had a bit of a "scratchy" throat on the way to the airport in the middle of the night (well 3:30 a.m. is the...

    It was great!!! It was so exciting to see him on TV, and he did such a great job as the young Steven Seagal. :D

    Have you seen the commercial where the woman in lacy undies is straddling a man who's passed  out on a hotel room bed.... to sell a cell phone plan?!?  :yikes:  She's screaming "Senator, senator, wake up!" and then goes on about how if he dies he'll miss out on this great new cell plan.  Not...

    Everytime I see him on the "Butt Kickin' Gazelle" workout video I can't help but think of that commercial....:sigh: I have to say that I do love this machine though, Gripey and I both are able to do the whole advanced butt kickin' workout now and Gripey even goes on a bit further. I'm doing 45...

    The other post got me thinking about some I really, really hate. The ones I despise the most right now are those Men's Cologne commercials or whatever it is - Axe or something equally stupid? The one I saw yesterday had the teenager spraying himself before going to the door to get his date...

    Ok, I can see the commercial in my head... dissolve to tv screen... man and woman in a all white arena. man says "we are looking for a car" stacks and stacks of cars pop up out of the floor. woman says " a four door" all that is left is four door cars. Man says "for under $18,000", some cars...

    Cheapskate family on Good Morning America I didn't get to watch the whole segment this morning, but they had the Economide family on GMA this morning. From what I caught, they do most of the stuff we do. :) http://abcnews.go.com/sections/GMA/AmericanFamily/Frugal_family_040427-1.html

    The one where someone had their lunch all laid out on the counter & left the room? The dog ate the sandwich then drank the Pepsi and heard the person coming back and grabbed the cat & put him on the counter? It is so funny! Anyone else see any funny commercials lately?
