Is Groupon about getting rid of old technology as their advert shows two women fighting over the smallest fattest HDTV I've ever seen

Every year at Christmas we get albums from Cliff Richard, bloody Daniel O'Donnell and other abominations like the ones you mentioned. There is also another awful-sounding album of classics out by Bill Turnbull as well to compound the misery. I mean, does anyone actually really want to listen to this depressing stuff at Christmas, of all times? And to think, it is supposed to be the "season to be jolly"! I am surprised that we haven't had the latest effort from bloody Foster And Allen to torment us again yet. As you say, I think music like this fits squarely into the "what shall we buy grandma this year" category.
Albums strictly for the over-60s and every year we get more like this. Though, to be honest, I doubt even my own mother would enjoy this sort of crap and she is over 70!!

Currently, anything without James Corden in is a Godsend, much need relief!
My God, the worst thing about that Sainsbury's advert is you KNOW that the smug little prick really does fancy the idea of cloning himself . Here's a dilemma, if there was a fire, and James Corden and Rylan were inside, and you HAD to save one, which one would it be? Stuff like that really keeps me up an night worrying ![]() And the current ASDA advert boils my piss. |

Before you buy the Bradley Walsh album, think about how many times you'll play it after Xmas Day, ie. none. Quote:
I'm enjoying the Hugh Dennis voice overs for the Currys ads.
Its like everything he says is in inverted commas, and he's thinking "Really?" Quote:

Another classic gone now, with 'more than a bargaaaaainnn' and an eye-stabbing close-up of the B&M shop front, clearly from a student of the Cillit Bang school of design which I believe in turn had its roots in the original Radion college before that was closed due to excessive cruelty to fluorescents.

I really hate this years M&S christmas ad. Is it just me, but shouldn't Father Christams and his wife be old, kindly people. Somehow M&S seem to think that Father Christmas should be some doddery old geezer who is married to a 45 year old 'MILF' type. Just wrong in every single way. Quote:
I love how everyone knows what scammers Dixons were with the 'extended warranties' that weren't worth a light, and so they quietly hide their main name and make Currys the more dominant one. I'd never shop there again.
So why was Dixons worst that Currys/Comet/Amazon/PC World/Tandy ect, unless I'm missing something like the insurance company Dixons used went into administration? |

All these extended waranty schemes were option extras and almost everywhere offered them, hell even Amazon offer 'product protection' for certain electrical products.

Not sure whether I'm impressed with the 'Evolution of Stunts' advert.
I forgot what they were selling. |

Not sure of the company ...
"The dancing meerkats that burst into flame while singing in twee voices and then James Corden walks in? Yeah, it's, ah, you know, that, er, insurance company". |

I know the Amazon Echo has been mentioned on here before, but even with the Black Friday sale knocking it down from £150 to £120, I still thought... but, if I so desired, I could talk to my smartphone for free(!)

Before internet shopping, Dixons (who incorporate Currys, PC World and The Link) were one of the heaviest sellers of extended warranties. One guy later summed it up online when he had to tell the employee not to mention it again or he'd just walk out. It was mentioned again and he walked out without having bought anything. Sale lost.

I thought it was last years offering, are HoF in trouble because thats exactly what I'm taking from the rehashed Crimbo advert.

Yes and that annoying grin Goodman has
Very false man.... Quote:
I thought the Heinz advert had been taken off because it was shit. It was so people don't slit their wrists on sharp edges then.
I hated the Sainsbury's advert with its politically correct stop motion characters before I knew it was James Corden. Talks of it being the Christmas no.1. Please anything, even an X-Factor song. As for the PC comment; I agree. I can't help but notice that almost EVERY SINGLE ADVERT has black or mixed race people in it. Despite the fact that roughly 90% of the UK is white. ![]() Obviously to appease the PC brigage. Quote:
Every sodding advert about Black Friday! Get this American shite out of Britain!
![]() ROLL UP ROLL UP! Loads of crap tellies worth nowt, for a fiver less than they are the rest of the year!

I've done similar twice myself, once with PC world, once with Comet. Both times I said "look, if you try to sell me the warranty one more time I am not going to bother, both times they did it anyway, then looked surprised when I got up and walked out
![]() Long story short, they were hoping to sit us down for 10 minutes, blind us with bullshit, and sell us £200 of crap we don't need, (or that's free on the internet!) along with an extended warranty (when it had 2 years on it anyway!!!) Probably to make up for the laptop being only £275 in the sale! W@nkers. |

Asda asking the dog to signal with its ears how she should wear the reindeer headband. Like there was a question of her wearing it sticking out the front of her head? Nonsense
