Thanks for uploading it, SCH! I appreciate the effort you must have gone through to capture it and upload it. I have a couple of friends who haven't seen it yet.

maybe because i am in that business, but i fail to see the humour. i thought it was a rather dumb commercial actually, frankly no one sits around an office "wondering" how to ship a parcel.
where was the humour? it was a very poor parody of a real life situation that NEVER happens.

That was pretty funny, one of the better commercials I've seen in a while. It was simple and effective. Thanks for the link

I was very excited to see one getting built on 32nd Ave NE. I phoned their number today but no one picked up. I hope it opens soon!

I think the idea was that its obvious how one ships a parcel to somewhere else; use a delivery service like FedEx. It wasn't meant to accurately reflect day-to-day business decisions...

Really, Nandos is coming to Calgary? It's about time. Vancouver has a million, Toronto has three, and Ottawa has one.
Not to mention locations in places such as Luanda, Dakar, Nicosia, Muscat, Karachi, and Suva just to name a few.

Getting sick of that commercial already, they must have run it a dozen times during the baseball game tonight.
I don't know, it's just another lame ad, not funny to me anyways.
The Sport Select "throwback" commercial makes me laugh, the dudes getting pummeled and getting pucks fired at them in the vintage gear.

My favorite commercial right now is the old school Raisin Bran one with the lumberjack. As soon as I heard it again I started singing along in my head. That commercial has got to be...what?...15 - 20 years old? And I still remember the words. Crazy, I cant remember people's names 15 seconds after meeting them but something stupid like that stays locked in.

I found this commercial pretty lame.
But the one that just came on had me laughing my arse off.
Pretty good looking girl in the bathroom, putting tampons in the vanity, moving items around... then a guy looks in...
Next scene a lady is talking to this guy...
"Can't keep your one night stands to one night? Stop cooking with cheese!!"
Man THAT was funny.

I was going to guess closer to 30 years. Everything in that comercial seems to have the same aura glow that I see in my Star Wars holiday special tape from about 30 years ago. Not sure if that's how TV was back then, or something to do with being stored on video tape for so long.
Plus I'm sure I heard it during Saturday morning cartoons; and that would have been 25 years ago.
