July 9th, 2010 by StopPress Team

Add comment

 

Of note this week on Ads@6, plenty, really. The nice wee number for the new Mastercard promotion sees the All Blacks getting owned; the phrase ‘cook us some eggs’ gets bandied about by a kid in the Henergy ad; TSB continues to milk its most recommended status; the Benadryl cold monster is awesome; the new Canon campaign is, as they say in Mexico, very muy bien; Hyundai goes epic and cringey; the Furnware spot for Vodafone tickles a little bit of fancy; and the woman in the Big Save commercials with the nigh-on sinister enthusiasm for low prices wins the prize for scariest eyes ever seen on New Zealand television (aside perhaps from Anthony Dixon).

Not surprisingly, Telecom has been on the receiving end of a few XT related barbs in recent times. But not just from consumers. Its competitors have also been very happy to oblige with a few barbs of their own. And this cheeky wee number from .99 for Vodafone was deemed good enough to take the NAB newspaper ad of the month title for February. Read more »
