Did I hear that right?

Didn't someone in 'Corporate' listen to the latest Kmart ad before it was released ?

Yes, and it's called viral marketing. Now people are talking about a KMart add, and pulling it up on Youtube to watch. It was played on the radio station I listen to in the morning as part of the show chatter and entertainment, not a paid commercial. KMart is getting great value out of whatever they spent on making it.

Won't do them any good round here....the Houston ones (maybe all the Texas ones?) closed down a few years back. Bit of a shame if this is what we're missing on local radio:D

Brilliant bit of marketing and very funny! Seems like a knock off of the SNL 'Oops I crapped my pants' skit.

Yeah, they closed a number of their stores here. The local one is easy to find though, .... just drive through town and look for the empty parking lot! :D

That took some executive bottle. Either a hero or out the door with that one.
