To check the reality of my challenged observation as to the price of items
advertised on TV, while watching the latter part of the West Wing tonight,
I decided to log the spots during the conclusion of that program and Law &
Order.
I just lost the previously composed message where I delineated the spots
and promos, and I'm not going to repeat it now, although I'll keep my
notes.
I counted 36 ads. None were for prescription drugs; about 20% were for
new cars.
Possibly two spots were for items that you could (purchase or use for a
year) and possibly have change from a 10-spot: Afrin "No drip" and scotch
brand tape. Three were for items that cost between 10 and 11 dollars:
KFC family pack (9.99 plus sales tax), and "The Aviator" and "Spanglish".
(Admissions for first run movies hereabouts are at least $9.50 before
sales tax.)
I'd say the average price for items advertised was at least $15,000. Only
one government-agency "First Five California" run by Rob Reiner was seen.
