Baxters Soup
Have you seen the new Baxters Soup advert, where the family of 5 arrive unexpectedly (and without an ounce of consideration) at a godforsaken house on the edge of some Scottish loch?
The arrangements made for their supper - 5 tins of Baxters soup in the open air where the temperature looks to be just above zero - are supposed to make us long for the Scottish highlands.
In reality, it looks like the supper from hell.

Adverts are there to try and get your attention, and perhaps even to make you think about their product, long after the advertisment has ended.
Guess they earned their money with this one.

Definitely, jaysay.
Costs a few pence more, but well worth it.

Re: Baxters Soup
Ena Baxter thinks the advertising revenue was well spent.

Re: Baxters Soup
The ad. has a certain feel-good factor about it. The only ready-made soup I ever eat or buy is this:
