People in general must be really stupid (including myself) to still fall for the old $2.99 and think “Hey, that’s only two dollars!”. The advertisers are getting better every year but what they are selling is getting worse every year. I recently saw a drug advert on tv and it stated that we have a pill. Call your doctor to see if this pill is good for you. There was no mention in the advert of what the pill may or may not do. This is the old “monkeys flinging crap against the wall to see what sticks”.

In Canada drug ads are not allowed to tell you what a drug treats as part of the ad. You can only advertise the price, quantity and name. Its a big reason there are so many fewer drug ads compared to the us. https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/marketing-drugs-devices/illegal-marketing/prescription-drugs.html#a6
