They annoy me so much it makes me utterly determined NOT to buy the products advertised. |

I don't watch them and if they are loud and annoying I WON'T buy the product for sure. The only ones that catch my attention are the ones that just sort of blend in with the program, otherwise it's off to the bathroom or kitchen for me. |

Sometimes. I think if a company has the money to invest in a good commercial, They have the money to create a better product. Whether or not that's true, I still want that new ipod! |

Regardless what people may say advertising does work.
Let me ask you this question.
Think of 5 hamburger joints?
Bet one of them was McDonalds wasn't it? If not I bet it was another chain like Burger King or Wendys? Why did you think of them? Be honest now. Do any of the chain hamburger places REALLY make the best hamburger? Of course not! Did you name your own house? But they DO spend a bundle on advertising to get their name in front of you.
People who really understand advertising know that people aren't going to jump from their chairs when they see a Toyota commercial and run out an buy one. They will however remember the name Toyota. That's all any advertiser hopes for.
The next time your hungry and are driving around and are near a McDonalds you might think "they have that new McRib sandwich, maybe I'll try that."
How did you know that?
So unless you live in a cave without any media you will respond to advertising even if its just to remember a name. |

They don't entice me personally to buy them but I suppose they do some people. The particularly add to the pester power of children. I have heard my own grandchildren referring to products on advertisements and asking for them. |

I surf when a commerical comes on, most of them are nothing but lies, I can tell you this i have nevr bought one item from a commerical. I believe the money is wasted on the public and it just proves these corporations have too much money on their books. AS for fast food they can keep it would rather eat a home cook meal anyday. I tend to think it is a way for these corporation to lundry money with their commericals. |
