Advertising Age Top 10 Commercials


Advertising Age magazine ranked their top 10 commercials. Check out the Coke, Skittles and Discovery Channel ads. A couple of other ones are a little freaky, but they all stand out in some way.

Beer Bag/Ad



This is an awesome marketing/advertising idea. They placed an image of the a case of beer on the side of a bag. It looks like the shoppers are carrying a case of beer.

Ahhh, Butter


Great billboard for butter in Switzerland. (Ads of the World)

Best Commercial: Star Burst & Lionel Richie

Here's one of my favorite, all time commercials. It's an amazing Starburst ad with a Lionel Richie song in the background.
