Wow, I searched long and hard and I can't find a thread on these commercials yet. Maybe I'm the only unfortunate one being plagued with them? The commercial starts with some woman in a dark room getting an ominous call from someone saying her kitchen is stinky. WOW. Then they show the garbage and these exceedingly obnoxious voices go STINKY! STINKY! STINKY! while they zoom in on the garbage. Then a bunch of manly voices chant "HEFTY HEFTY HEFTY!" As if this wasn't bad enough, they do it TWICE. Ok, I know the economy is struggling right now, but you have GOT to be kidding me. It's like the owners of Hefty had to fire their entire advertisting staff and default to whatever their 5 year old thought was clever.

It's actually a resurrection of a very old ad campaign they had.
Without looking it up, I'd say it's at least 20 years old.
This current iteration has more drama, but the Hefty-Hefty-Hefty/Stinky-Stinky-Stinky bit is old.

CORRECTION
I just remembered, it was Hefty-Hefty-Hefty/Wimpy-Wimpy-Wimpy
but the idea is the same.

I didn't know the average human even kept stinky garbage in thier homes (well except in suburbian Kansas City where they shoot "COPS" if your garbage smells that bad, just toss it in the fireplace or feed it to the bears.

i know there is a commercial that goes wimpy wimpy wimpy/ hefty hefty hefty
its right there.
but im having an argument with a friend, she is saying that the commercial was stinky stinky stinky/hefty hefty hefty. i proved her wrong by showing her that video, but now shes saying that there is another commercial she was talking about that says. stinky stinky stinky/hefty hefty hefty. i haven't found anything on the internet that is this commercial, so i was just wondering is there a trash bag commercial with a combinatation of hefty/stinky. |

Read my posts, 2-3 up in this thread.
There was an old campaign, using wimpy-wimpy-wimpy/Hefty-Hefty-Hefty.
This new iteration uses "stinky" instead of "wimpy."

I think this commercial sucks, big time. Like anyone would call a person, to just tell them that their garbage smells.

That "Hefty/Wimpy" ad goes back to at least the 1984 or '85; it was a very popular schoolyard chant/taunt when I was in 4th and 5th grade.

To me, this commercial sounded like more of a Scream movie rip-off.
With that being said, I was expecting the phone caller to say to the woman, "What's YOUR favorite scary movie"? |

What bugs me the most is that the trash is not in a hidden place but right in the MIDDLE OF THE KITCHEN..is NOT CLOSED..just left open like that full to the brim and it's not supposed to smell. What the heck? close it up and throw it out. no sh*t it smells. just stupid advertising.
