Like **** it worked. Me and every damn person I know boycotts the F out of companies that go out of their way to be annoying to catch your attention. I can give you a two page list of things I avoided or companies I didn't use because of that crappy method of advertising. Biggest friggen gear grinder in the world.  |
LOL...
Oh please...people talk about boycotting all the time and then when a company comes out with a product you want or the price you want, you still going to "stand your ground"...uh huh...
It's a commercial. It is common practice for commercials to be annoying in some way so you will "remember" them. It is a known way to market a product and it works. For every person who types in this thread and swears up and down they will never buy x product again, 20 other people remember the commercial when they are thinking about buying x product and go there first. It's a fact of life and a fact of advertising and marketing.
