I saw this gem of an outdoor ad when I was out and about on Melbourne Cup day. Now don't get me wrong, most advertising is crap, but this one deserves special mention. Mainly because I can't even remotely comprehend what they are trying to say about the product.
Are they trying to recommend that you prioritise the purchase of a fridge over an overseas holiday? The mere fact they they somehow compare the two as mutually exclusive events is crazy.
This would actually make a better ad for Bali tourism. Something along the lines of- 'Fuck getting a fridge, come to Bali instead'. Baffling....
Wow, that's seriously bad Pete! You might appreciate http://copyranter.blogspot.com.au/ (who is now also contributing on Buzzfeed (http://www.buzzfeed.com/copyranter)
