ALL THAT GLITTERS...

Discuss the following questions:

Would you buy a mobile phone you don't know the brand of and you don't know from commercials?

What have you bought which has been heavily advertised in commercials? What made you buy the product - by rational thinking or as a victim of a clever advertising campaign?

Have you ever felt disappointed after buying a product?

Is it always difficult to see through and resist commercials?

What happens with people when they are precisely the correct target group for a product, for example soft drink or perfume?
