Your favorite Aussie/NZ ad.
Inspired by Britboys, Tui ad thread 
Whats your favorite kiwi/aus ad, from TV, radio or whatever. There are so many over there everyone must have at least one that they remember made them chuckle...
My personal favorite...
There is, or used to be a washing up liquid called Drive. Thier slogan is/used to be :
"Don't drink Drive. Its a washing up liquid"
Made me grin anyway!

'When I wore a younger man's clothes' in Oz there used to be a company selling spanners, sockets etc called Rigid. Their slogan was:-
'You never know when you'll need a Rigid tool'!!

As an afterthought to Rigid Tools the ad I like when in Oz is the Mitsubishi cars ad with the very catchy tune - Music in You by the New Radicals I think.

Further thoughts. Some of the best Aussie ads are actually made in the UK for the UK market using what they perceive as Aussie humour. I am thinking of some of the excellent ads for FourEx and to a lesser extent Fosters (Australians wouldn't give a **** for anything else, I can't take a mates beer but I can take his wife, she's a good sport that wife of yours etc, etc). Nearly as good as the Carlsberg don't run a bank, offer holidays etc but if they did they would probably be the best. All designed to appeal to young males these ads.

the Bunnnings warehouse advert on the radio, whilst not catchy, or certainly a favourite, is certainly unforgettable.
