The most effective advertising campaigns typically feature a catchphrase that is simple for customers to remember. This corporation changed the expression “the best things in life are free” to “the best things in life are wrapped in cellophane.” They deserve credit for their creativity, right? The ingenuity has gone a bit too far. Instead of wrapping a wonderful gift basket or box of chocolates with their product, they felt that wrapping a baby in plastic would be a tremendous hit. Although the stork is a nice addition, the advertisement should include a caution stating, “This product is not intended for wrapping humans.”

Tennis balls everybody!! One would assume this is an advertisement for a seedy club or a “all-nude-tennis” match. But no! It is advertising for a computer game. A computer game that simulates tennis. Tennis match. In a computer system. In the eighties. What should one anticipate before beginning to play this game with 1980s-era visual capabilities? Why would you use this image to market a computer game about tennis?
