This commercial plays 50 times an hour, and I don't understand the "plot". Something about a hockey mom- She gets cold gassing up her car, she gets hit by a blast from a freezer at the store, she cheers as someone does something at a hockey game, then she dramatically flips up the hood on her coat with a self-satisfied smirk on her face. WTF is being sold here?

I know the commercial you're talking about, Forgot the product...was it for cold medicine? Can't recall because I actually only saw it once. I'm thinking she was dealing with a cold, and the winter themed BS that comes with it. Pops a cold relief tablet and she's ready to go - the cold weather, sub zero temps don't bother her anymore.
Speaking of the cold tabs, I hate the ones with some sniffling congested mess is up at 3am sitting on the edge of her bed looking like death. She pops an AlkaSeltzer fizzie pill. 7 hours later she's at work and feeling great. Maybe it's me, I have never felt great that fast when dealing with a full blown cold. |

Another obnoxious Bank of America commercial, these all piss me off.
The poor single mom has to find a way to pay for all the fun winter weather activities.

I never liked Bank of America commercials they always aimed for the lowest common denominator!
BTW I hate the "music" they chose for this commercial its annoying and repetitive! I also can't stand the douchehole they chose for the announcer I HATE his tone! |

How does the focusing on the sullen daughter and the gas station clock help further the message (whatever it is)? I guess I just don't understand commercials.

What this, and many other CC companies do is try to promote their cards with cash back or reward points.
I think, they just want you rack up more charges, hoping you will not pay it all off at the end of the month, then they can charge an outragious interest rate that will erase that BS 1% or 2% or 3% 'rewards'.
I hate them, we use credit cards but I never pay any interest or fees, I will not give them that satisfaction.
