I swear off so many products and services for no other reason than their obnoxious, repetitive commercials.
Off top of my head, I will never buy Old Spice anything because their ads are so repetitive and obnoxious. I feel disgust when I see it in the store and actively avoid it for no other reason than their spam campaigns.
Same for USAA, Native body wash, AmEx, Liberty insurance (that forced catchy theme), and more.
Anyone else feel the same way? Or have you caught yourself getting suckered in because of ads’ subconscious shenanigans?
Not completely related but there are a number of landscaping companies that use a small plastic bag to hold their business card and a small rock and then throw them into everyone’s driveways once a month.
never gonna contact them
That’s more obnoxious then leaving a flier in my mailbox. I’m not calling any contractor who does either. If they were any good they wouldn’t need to do that, word of mouth would keep them busy.
I’ve seen that as well. Good way to smash someone’s car/house window one day.
You reminded me of this guy who used to put a 3x5 note card with his handwriting on it and would put it on select cars in the neighborhood saying “I buy junk cars”. Basically only on cars that didn’t look to be in the best shape.
Way to go disrespecting people you want to do business with!
I’ve seen posts recently that someone is going around doing this to every cyber truck they see.
I’m not mad at it.
That’s textbook littering, how have they not been fined out of existence?
