Rug Sale adds, has anybody actually ever paid full price for a rug? they are always closing down and re-opening and half the time they dont even close down.

Designer Direct for me too, I reckon I'd almost make an exception to the rule of never hitting a woman if I saw her in the street.

i know heps of people that were like that, but then met her and she is actually really nice, she knows my dad abit through work, so when we need that sort of stuff we always get a real good deal there.

I am with you on this one
if and when I ever need plumbing done, it wont be by these guys

Great topic.
One of the things that I love about being overseas is that I don't have to watch the disgusting ads that reputedly work purely on the basis that they are very annoying and get stuck in your head. (I think that there are stats that prove this). Before I left for Japan there was the stupid lounge ad where the guy screeches out "WHERE" about fifty times, at a volume way above where everything else is recorded at. I have vowed never to buy anything from anywhere that has an annoying ad, just to make the eggheads redo their research and treat the common consumer with a little more respect.
Just as a comparison, some Seppos came to Japan a few years back with an annoying ad campaign and flopped big time. The Japanese basically boycotted the product because the ads were so bad.

At the risk of being inundated with death threats, I nominate the Tooheys ad (both of them)..dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb ads....

Guess its just one of those guy things i just dont get...

that telstra mobile one where the guy is on the bus and keeps pressing the stop button over and over and over and over again...

there will be side effects....

if I ever meet the person that wrote that ad there'll be side effects...

any ringtone adds, (crazy frog, jamster)

Metropolitan Plumbing - no question.

As for the Designer Direct lady, I went there once and she served me, really nice and helpful. When compared to that Metropolitan Plumbing ad, I'd rather see a movie consisting only of every Designer Direct ad - back to back.

And as for radio, Pagel Glass is in the Metropolitan Plumbing category. The only thing this repetitive bulls**t style of advertising achieves is me making a deliberate decision NOT to use a particular company.

You're right Sam. Are there any suckers in Adelaide who pay full retail for a rug? How is Barry Solomon still in business? He is obviously VERY BAD at ordering rugs as he is ALWAYS overstocked. And the "haggle guy" needs a bullet.

HOW MANY SLEEPS UNTIL FOOTY SEASON STARTS..........?????

I don't care how nice the Designer Direct lady is, she'd have to give me a damn good head job before I forgave her for the crap she puts on our TV screens.

You'd have to settle for a mediocre head job cos "everything is half price".
She might throw in a nice doona cover and a couple of pillows if you're lucky though.

That's gold Gilly!

A and RRRRR ad shits me!!! The bloke is very annoying but the ad that tops the cake is Mr Bankrupt, F##ken too noisy!!! Crazy Frog sucks too.

i moved to townsville early last year and i thought I'd never have to see the likes of Mr Bankrupt, the haggle guy or Barry Solomon again, and then i see an ad on tv showing this convoy of semi trailers heading along a highway and in the front truck hanging out the window is Solomon saying that he's coming to our town to sell rugs. WTF?!?! Maybe he was just going to regional towns to open a rug store for one day before starting a 3-month closing down sale!

Anyway, my theory is that bad adelaide advertising is like the opposite of cane toads, i.e. a filthy pest that is slowly creeping north!

I remember that ba$tard - he used to really grate.

I really hate the Carlton Draught 'Big' ad.

That AAMI ad when the guy is changing channels and the same ad is on all of them "Make it stop!" (Please!)
