You wake up in the morning, sip hastily your coffee and off to work!
But what is it that you meet on your way, whether it’s on the train walls or on sign aside the highway?
Commercial advertisements are everywhere and you are exactly who they look for!
Video clips on huge plasma screens on the streets, posters on bus stations, enormous signs, radio jingles, newspaper ads and banners & landing pages on the internet – all render endless information, in hope to catch you, the potential costumer.
It can be very boring and tiresome sometimes, isn’t it?

Cashmenow condom ads
This post is my favorite one, and not because of my never ending desire for you-know-what. These condom advertisements were made by a Chinese advertising company and they are really good. The creativity and originality can be found on the fact that the ads are based upon well known ads from other fields (Mc’donalds, Nike and others) and still – I think they are creative enough to make me stare at them and smile for more than a second, and that’s a lot!!!
My rating: 5 stars.
