“So round, so firm, so fully packed.”
That’s what he said.
That’s a great slogan. In fact, I may soon claim it as my own. But what is it intended to describe?
“Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco”
So round…

A butcher shop in Joplin, MO (found on billboards in the city):
*
“We have the meat you can’t beat!”
*
I’d walk a mile for a Camel.
“New and Improved!”
“Like a Rock.”
“We work hard so you don’t have to.”
how about logos?
sherwin williams:
a paint can dumping its contents over the earth.
nice, huh?
A breakfast cereal (Cheerios[sup]TM[/sup], perhaps) had the slogan…
“Feel your oats!”
Sure, that one sounded great at the marketing meeting…
“Like a Rock.”
—I never understood this one. Why would I want a car like a rock? Don’t they just sit there and not move?
Papa John’s Pizza:
Better ingredients, better pizza
I wouldn’t hit a dog in the ass with a piece of Papa John’s pizza.
This will not be believed, but there is a shop in Pueblo, Colorado that sells sells bolts, nuts, screws, etc. who have advertised for decades as, “Giving you the best screws around”.
On a more “G” rated topic - I’ve always liked, “With a name like Smuckers, it’s got to be good.”
I’ve never really understood it, but I’ve always liked it.
Locally we have an electrical contractor who has a truck with the slogan “Let us remove your shorts” emblazened across the back.
I imagine this one is rather common, but Denver has a window covering (drapes etc.) store that calls itself The Blind Shop (or something similar) and all of their vans have emblazoned on the side, “There is a Blind man driving this car!”
Australia’s biggest phone provider is Telstra, formerly the only phone company in Oz. Infamous for it’s sheer bloody-mindedness when it came customer service and complaints. They have only become worse since competition was introduced, yet they still have the gall to use the slogan:
Making it easier
The one that’s ALWAYS bugged me…
“Nobody doesn’t like Sara Lee!”
Besides the attrocious grammar, the first few times I heard it I thought they said “Nobody does it like Sara Lee!” – which despite the sexual innuendo (maybe that’s just me) would make a helluva better slogan.
A spot for Fox25 news “A new approach every night.” To me, all that says is that they’re a bunch of screw-ups who still can’t find a way to give the news properly.
Jaffa oranges had “The smaller ones are juicier” for years.
Now that’s a slogan!
I also liked Harley Davidson’s short lived “Put some excitement between your legs”.
