Re: RUGS A MILLION Advert!!! - Arrgghhh!
THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR FOUR YEARS (well at least the four years that I've been here).
Has nobody told him to sack his stock manager. Or sack himself maybe. Has he never heard of Just in time ordering?
And the bleeding heart adverts about how he has had to close some stores. Sheesh
, and then the shouting commentary.I actually can't think of a way to put me off a product more. Unless they said it was made in sweatshops in asia... oh hang on...

Why do they think that shouting at the camera, jiggling a few crap items around in their mucky hands (Chickenfeed) or throwing shoes around the warehouse (Pauls Warehouse) is a good selling technique??
But at least they make me turn off the TV and do something more useful

I tell you one ad that surpasses all of those shouty ones in terms of sheer driving me crazy.
That bloody one with Piers Brosnan and the 'anti-sagging' cream.
I HATE IT WITH MY HEART!!!!
"When I'm not campaigning for the environment blah blah blah"
Seriously, that is possibly one of the worst and cheesiest ads I've ever seen.

It's been running for years.
Every few weeks they seem to overstock and have to ship it all at 99.9% off.
You think he would have sacked his stock manager by now

Sorry ABCDiamond ,but in my opinion i am spot on with my opinion of Australians ,but we are all entitled to our own opinion.
Northernbird ,there was no need to say move on, but .............actually I HAVE,sadly some people have not moved with the times.Or should i say some States ,no offence.
Even if that advert was three years ago ,they have not improved since then.All i was saying ,was that it made me laugh .
