This commercial features customers saying "Ask me" a lot of times. It's really repetitive and annoying. Angry


One good thing about TV-you could always turn it off

Every time this commercial comes on I say to myself, "Ask me if I give a Censored."

Do they really expect people to go on their facebook and be like "hai guys anyone got a temperpedic?" How about giving me a real ad instead of basically telling me "go ask your friends how awesome our sh*t is". Lazy f**ks.
It's ok, I'm in marketing!

What they fail to tell you is just how much you'll be paying for that luxurious comfort.

Their cheapest mattress, the twin-sized "OriginalBed" model, is $699.

Confused...HEY! We've been down this road before....where's Madawee? I'm thinkin' she has an opinion here, as I remember...
I know MissyDWolf wanted one of these and got an actual 'sample'; a cube about large enough on which to rest one's elbow - think we considered that a 'tease' and we were not all that impressed. 
If I'm not mistaken, I think we're using it to wipe off the inside of the Blackillac's windows and windshield - seems to work pretty well.

Ask me if I give a sh!t about your product, just don't send me to Facebook first.
Agreed...the weird, excited voices of "Ask me" are annoying.
Please, stop saying "Awesome" in commercials! Your actors are not awe-inspiring and neither is your product.

Ask me if I like the bed--I'll say yes, steal it, then kick the ad to the curb.

I hate the constant repetition of "Ask me."...And ESPECIALLY hate when the guy randomly comes on speaking Chinese about his stupid ERGO-nomic bed.  It just pisses me off because I know they throw in some random non-English speaking dude to make you look at their stupid commercial.

This definitely falls into the "good product ~bad commercial" category. About 1 1/2 years ago we bought a memory foam mattress - A different brand, but just like the tempurpedic. BEST purchase of my life.   It lives up to the hype & then some, in my opinion. I've never slept better in my life.

I could barely stomach searching for the Tempur-pedic commercial I wanted to share here. And once I found it, I couldn't make the YouTube page go away fast enough. This is the one that is nails on a chalkboard for me. The guy when he says UUURRRGOnomic. And the Asian wife when she flips her hair over laughing fakely at whatever her husband said. Imagine how many takes it took to get THAT just right? Ugh.
 
Also, they treat their mattresses with fire retardant that's strongly suspected of off-gassing hormone disruptors, leading to, among other things, infertility.

And the net result??
 
"Embedding disabled by request".  LOL
 
At least now I don't have to watch it.  I guess I can do the same search you did, but your description was all I needed.  LOL
