So, have you seen any catchy advertisements or some interesting ways products are presented to the consumer? How do they toy around with the consumer's mind (without them realizing it)?

I've also seen the Sega advert from the early 90's "Genesis does what Nintendon't." It's catchy, though it turned out to be pretty embarrasing in the years of self destruction that followed. :) I guess they were good enough to be arrogant back then.

The insurance commercials there are the best I've ever seen. But really, it's sad how a commercial can toy with my mind, and make me feel that I need health insurance.

Anyway, I love commercials that make you laugh.

It's not about saying it, it's about the consumer visualizing it and seeing the price displayed. And 2.99 seems less - a "lot" less - than 3.00 when seeing it on a price tag.
And yes, what's a quid?
