fides quarens intellectum

Today, i went to the mall for new glasses. While walking by other stores, I saw one (a popular lotion/smelly-girly products store) with a huge poster of a completely naked woman over its registers, and another (a shoe store) with a poster of the backside of a woman in her underwear with a pair of sneakers on.

What's going on? <_<

Wow! What a coincidence! The same exact thing happened to me today. Are you going to write to the shoe store and (popular lotion/smelly-girly products) store and complain?

I think I know what store you are talking about. I went with my little sister to a rather popular lotion place to get my Mom a present for Mother's Day and was appalled to see a naked woman on the wall(while everything was nicly covered in some fashion-it's horrible). I called and complained.

That's uncanny, because the exact same thing happened to me today too. I was at the mall today to look at new glasses and noticed the exact same poster at that store. Teresa loves the hand soaps they have, but we probably won't shop there again because of it.

:clap:

Good for you for calling them.

I just sent an email, and got a silly canned response about how their ad campaign is meant to show how their products can give customers healthy skin. :unsure:

I won't be shopping there anymore, either, which stinks b/c i also liked their products a lot. In fact, their products sell themselves, which is why I don't understand the need for them to use a naked woman in their ads... :huh:

I hate going to the mall and avoid it at all costs... even though I really need to get new glasses...

The smelly girly lotion is obviously not smell enough, so they use the naked women to compensate for their failure.

I think I need to see a doctor about that actually :unsure: :lol_roll:
