E-Cigs in advertising

[VIPOD]

It was a pleasant surprise to read threw my December 31st edition of SI to discover a full page add of njoy King electronic cigarettes.



That was coupled by a TV ad on Spike, that advertised BluCigs with actor Stephen Dorff as the spokesperson.


Granted, most of us know that better products exists, but exposure is so needed.

Going mainstream.....I agree, think its excellent.

I think it's great, and hopefully an indicator of what's to come.

I love watching where all of this is going. Someone posted an interesting article a while ago that pointed out this is the first time in most of our life times that a "cigarette" product has been advertised on television. Something similar is going to happen in the UK pretty soon; E-cigarette company to launch TV advertising campaign | Media | guardian.co.uk

Edit: Here is the commercial; E-Lites Gangnam Baby TV Ad - YouTube

While I don't think it's made it to television, the stupidity of this commercial still makes me giggle; Sex With a Robot - YouTube

HappyVaper got an ad in the Metro News paper...
for the "Nation Non-Smoking Week".

hopefully we will see some more Toronto vapers emerge as a result!

A lot in our community are worried about BT coming in. In fact they have the money to take vaping "mainstream" and to get government to bend. The issue will be the pact with the devil - Government and BT. Watch for it its coming..........
