Oh, M&S...Really?

It has just come to my attention that this Friday is Valentine's Day.  I know. The marketing  has been going on for weeks probably but I haven't noticed it until now.

What made me laugh out loud though was an ad from M&S promoting their special "Love Sausage". 




I wonder which PR whizz kid came up with that one?

  1. And I wonder how many daft people fell for it and bought it. M and S know their customers well!

  2. If you are nice to Peregrine all week, he might give you a love sausage on Valentine's Day morning.

  3. Say it with a sausage!


    "I swapped Aldi for Mark's and Spencer's"

    I wonderif that advertising slogan would catch on?

  4. Reminds me of the Jo Brand quip on Have I Got News For You. One of the items was about rhea meat. Only she could get away with asking Ian Hislop, Paul Merton and Jacob Rees-Mogg "has anyone here ever enjoyed a rhea sausage?"

  5. This Friday? I almost missed it too. I guess I had better think about something nasty he would like to eat. Wish it could be live sausage, with the eggs, but it's more likely to be bulls balls or maybe moray eel
