Oh yes, and the Valentine's Day merch is already in the stores so get ready for the next attack of the diamond commercials.Blueberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17357299403457746440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546852745854877350.post-66193455181860154232011-01-01T08:56:35.051-05:002011-01-01T08:56:35.051-05:00I hate those Jared commercials so much.

"When Naomi Campbell was told that those diamond she was given were mined by children who have their arms cut off for disobedience, she looked at the reporter and asked, "Both arms?"<br /><br />I know my contribution doesn't solve the problem but if I ever bought a diamond it would be a CANADIAN POLAR DIAMOND.Kalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00663751053844271849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546852745854877350.post-29972720290337612202010-12-30T17:31:03.187-05:002010-12-30T17:31:03.187-05:00I hate those "He went to Jared" commerci...I hate those "He went to Jared" commercials with a passion. They're right up there with the "FreeCreditReport.com" ads with those hideous jingles. <br /><br />The Kay Jewelers ones are annoying too, though not as much as the Jared ones. The one that gets to me, though, is the "Storm" one. Not only do you have the pathetic woman who is afraid of a thunderstorm, but then she positively melts over a piece of jewelry. You can tell Mr. Man is going to get some, between doing his manly duty to protect her from the Big Bad Storm and buying her off with a bauble.
