Guinness Red’s Ts&Cs

At the Student’s Union a week or so back I picked up a leaflet which turned out to be a coupon for a half pint of Guinness Red. On the reverse were the terms and conditions which contained this line;

“Please do not attempt to redeem against any other product as refusal to accept may cause embarrassment and delay”.

Click here to see it for yourself. I love that they thought it was worth putting on the leaflet. I just hope this isn’t part of the ‘warning! this coffee may be hot’, corporate culture; you now have to warn people that they might embarrass themselves. Maybe their new pint glasses will read, ‘warning! the contents of this glass may result in an awkward trip to the doctor for your best mate’s sister’.

Merry Christmas from Apple

As anyone who knows me at all will know; I am a fanatic Apple geek! Everyone will know the iconic Apple ads by now and since it’s Christmas time they’ve released a couple of new Christmas-ey ones, I thought I’d share my favourite; you really can’t help but love PC can you?

Channel Four Does Politics

Channel 4 hired an advertising company at the last general election to come up with some adverts for each party and they were great. While sorting through my movies folder just now I discovered that I actually had a copy of them each and thought I’d share, enjoy!
