I don’t know about you, but it seems like there are more and more really bad commercials on TV. Just the other night, my husband and I were commenting on several that ran one after another. I can’t even remember now what they were, so clearly they weren’t memorable and isn’t that the point, commercials are supposed to be memorable!?! So when I saw this one, it made me happy and I was singing along. I loved it…even if it is airing BEFORE Thanksgiving…
Bravo Barnes & Noble for reminding us that shopping for books in a bookstore is still a fun and special activity, not to mention a great place to find really good presents for everyone on your list! I love browsing for books, walking up and down the aisles, picking up titles and reading what gems are hidden inside. I am sad that many of my local bookstores have closed and the well read owners and staff are not there to recommend their favorite reads…internet browsing is not the same experience. Watching this commercial got me into the spirit of Christmas and made me excited to go find a good book for myself and everyone on my list. And the good news is, I did remember the next day that the commercial was for Barnes & Noble.
I agree, just saw it for the first time last night. I must tell you how much I have enjoyed reading your blog every morning with my tea. Keep up the good work and thanks.
