A nice way of sticking it to the competition.

A fun advertising effort by Johnson & Johnson in Brazil. The cardboard is positioned under the door and sells Jontex, a brand of condoms. The headline reads, "you do not know when it can be necessary."
This is not the only time the Jontex advertising team went creative. Here's another high profile placement . . . no explanation needed. Source: BrandweekNRX
These Durex condom ads were strategically placed in toll gates so that people would have to push into images of strategically placed women's rear ends to enter the subway station.

10 of the Funniest, Sadest and just Bad Ad Placements

This Bus Ad placement was fine until the bus driver hit the mud.

Oh, so that's why we fly huh.

The next 2 ad placements are sad and very disturbing.

Yahoo just can't seem to catch a break.

This one is great the Grill For Less Ad came up twice.

This is a good time to just let the billboard ad here speak for itself.

Sad, this placement is just sad.

"Enjoy A Second Cup" I got a good chuckle from this great ad placement.

Finally, I was disturbed by the placement of this advertising. What were they thinking!

Special thanks to ads of the world for finding these interesting ad placements.

Axe Bullet - Newest Commercial The Best One Yet

From The Axe Effect to The New Axe Bullet, Don't Let Opportunity Pass You By
Every once in awhile a great commercial hits us and the world just loves it. For me it was the song that hit me more than the Axe Bullet. It is simply a great commercial...Two thumbs up to the Axe Bullet

This is the greatest commercial from Axe I have seen yet. If you are wondering about the song in this commercial it is "Can't seem to make you mine" by "The Seeds".

U.S Elections Presidential Campaign Logo's

John McCain stands out the most at first glance, with the black background and the star. Hilary Clinton's logo is more traditional and looks Presidential. The John Edwards logo caught my eye simply because of the green swoosh...I liked that.

The Barack Obama logo is the most progressive and elegant one of them all. The concept and execution found within this logo are years ahead of the others The light blue found on either side of his name really ties this one together nicely. And in the year 2008, how did none of the other logos include the website address, like this one managed to do? Amazing!
