I loved that Irn Bru ad, must look that up now in a minute

But no, apparently there was an attempt to launch IrnBru onto the Polish market :eek:

Finally, there’s an interesting case of the Scottish soft drink Irn-Bru and the unsuccessful attempt to launch it in Poland with the help of Doda, the most controversial and talked-about Polish celebrity and singer. Surprisngly, the mixture of Irn-Bru’s rare taste, AG Barr’s secret formula and Doda’s sex-appeal did not make this launch a success story.
Doda with the bottle of Irn-Bru

Doda is a very smart celebrity who surely is capable of setting new trends with the Polish youngsters, so it is a bit strange that Irn-Bru never became popular in Poland. The product placement of the drink was quite visible in Doda’s video-clips for her major hit singles “Dwie bajki” and “Szansa”.


I suspect that the distribution might have been the main handicap that prevented Irn-Bru from winning its share of the market. It’s also possible that Polish consumers didn’t appreciate Irn-Bru’s strange taste.

If they wanted it to sell then they should have gotten her to take her top off




















I meant the top from her bottle of course

Thank you :A we have a folk festival just down the road, in Fleetwood every year. Ive never been even though it's on the doorstep:o maybe I should? DS1 wouldn't like this sort of thing, and he's my concert buddy but OH might if he ever gets up to facing a crowd

DS might like it, you never know How nice though if you could go with OH (and maybe DS aswell)

PS you have just mentioned Fleetwood, you know that brings back bad memories for me :rotfl::rotfl:

No, sadly it's picked the multibuys up.

Extract from APG result - Avs T (my shop at 9.35pm on Sat. night) - multibuy prices in bold:

1 x Mr Kipling Viennese Whirls (6)£1.00£0.65
1 x Dettol Moisture Hand Wash (250ml)£1.50£1.25
1 x Kleenex Collection Cube Facial Tissues (56)£1.00£0.94
1 x Kleenex Limited Edition Collection Cube (56)£1.00£0.94
1 x Rowntree's Randoms (160g)£1.00£0.64
1 x Sanex Men Dermo Antiperspirant Deodorant - Active ...£1.50£1.99

So we know now that the bar code ending 009834 isn't the right one for the "Limited Edition" cube to fail to appear on the APG.

You should give it a go, my 3 have grown up with this folk festival. It is suprising what they do like. Bit like me with seasick steve.

Might be worth trying a day ticket if they do them, to get the feel of the place. There is another festival quite close to us each year but the atmosphere was not right for me, we came home.

It is, I was born in '85 :cool:

But it's one of those songs that I always remember being played at parties in the house when I was younger, there are a fair few like that that bring back those kind of memories

I'm wandering down memory lane this evening.
