The Worse Ad I've Seen on T.V. in a Long Time.

Supercheap Auto have this horrible ad on the T.V. at the
moment.

It shows a young boy, who has used his hard earned pocket
money to buy his dad a C.D. He has thought about it and
knows what type of music his father likes.

The father takes him to the garage and DESTROYS the C.D.
and in it's place jumps out a gift card on Supercheap and
the announcer says "Give him the gift he really wants."

Now I was taught that a gift horse should not be looked
at in the mouth!

Also a gift card is an IMPERSONAL gift. Something you buy
for the people who don't know very well or in the case of
a person who is so busy that they have not got the time to
go shopping.

It is anti everything I was brought up to believe Christmas
was about.
