I know this ad by heart (mostly) it's a pretty funny yet pretty clever ad.

cut to animation of log worker cutting a tree making coupons with cut down forest in background on white background.

(in a funny quick toughworker voice)"Coupon Man I'mmakingsomecou-pons"

cue a siren noise with a turquoise Yaris looking car with a yellow siren on top it quickly stops behind him, siren turns off, a green suited bee with glasses mascot opens the door and flies out, while he talks a low buzzing sound can be heard.

in a slightly high southern sounding voice "Stop Coupon man you're destroying the environment!"

in the next animation we see the bee fly up to a tree with coupons as leaves he waves his  hand and the coupons become leaves

(I can't remember the exact wording on some parts of the next line)

"Every year thousands of trees are destroyed for coupons , by reducing our waste we save thousands of trees each year, which is more safer for the environment ,learn more a BThrifty,com."

and the last animation shows the same turquoise Yaris looking car driving away from the viewer (center view of the back) with trees growing rapidly left and right of it (like they line a roadway) after it passes by each point

Okay okay, it's hard to decribe some things beacuse the commercial goes so FAST likethat *snap* you've got look fast or you'll miss it, best part of it? I can't remember the "g" word ever said once in this ad.   

But it got straight to the point in a clever and fun way, well done.Thumbs%20Up

hey, on behalf of the BThrifty family I'd like to say thank you for your response to our ad. I'm the official Mascot for the company, so when people see me on tv, I like to say thank you. Don't forget to sign up for your bgreen card, it's free.
