    Default old adverts

    Another sire I use gave me an idea to use.

    What are your favourite adverts and what were the words used, this is mine but for the life of me I cannot remember the product, it was a van full of builders singing to "Que Sera Sera"


    Will it be chips or jacket spuds,
    Will it be carrots or frozen peas,
    Will it be mushrooms,
    Fried onion rings,
    We'll have to wait and see,
    Hope it's chips, it's chips,
    We hope it's chips it's chips.
    We hope it's chips, it's chips,
    Hope it's chips, it's chips.

    The Shake and Vac lady was memorable because it inspired our two year old to run round the house applying some expensive talcum powder on the carpets.

    Thanks tonkajoto, you've reminded me about so many adverts......

    When I was young (??) I used to love the "Cadbury's Flake" advert....

    "Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate, taste like like chocolate never tasted before"

    OR - Does anyone remember the advert for "Smash" ....
    I'm the kind of woman whose feet hit the floor each morning, and the Devil says........... " Oh, Blast She's Up !! "

    A finger of Fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat,
    A finger of Fudge is just enough until its time to eat,
    Its full of Cadbury goodness and very small and neat,
    A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat.

    YUM YUM !!!
