Worst ad campaign of the year by a major company
I burst out laughing every time I see one of their TV commercials, which always end with somebody saying, "Shop victoriously!"
What a joke.
The wheels are really coming off at this once-booming company.
I wonder how many millions of dollars they invested in an ad campaign which might as well have been spearheaded by a non-native English speaker.
"All your base are belong to us."
Yeah, that guy.
It doesn't even scan right, besides being nonsensical.
You can pick up a "Shop Victoriously" bumper sticker on eBay (where else?) for $3 if you act quickly.
It's not as if eBay isn't in the habit of brain-dead ad campaigns — they've been going on for years now.

Glad you didn't like it too.
The first time I saw the "fox hunt" commercial I thought it had something to do with the Special Olympics. Why do most advertisers make the customer look and act like an idiot?
Try it yourselves. Watch TV tonight and after each commercial say; "Yea, he's an idiot". Amazing.
