| WattBusters Super Bowl AD |
 Watch for the new WattBusters commercial during the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 6th. You can forget about Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake. This year should be much more family-oriented since there aren't
too many worries about Paul McCartney having a wardrobe 'malfunction' during
halftime. Keep your eyes peeled to stay abreast of all the technological changes in energy savings products.
The
WattBusters ad will be .025 seconds long at a cost of $2000. You'll have to watch closely.
It involves a zebra driving a shiny convertible through a muddy "mosh pit", wearing hip-hugging jeans, singing about some new medication while turning lights on all over the city with his magic lite beer bottle. We figured that the reference to 'lite' would be a massive incentive for the audience to hop right up and call WattBusters...
 Seriously, the cost of a 30-second television ad during Super Bowl XXXIX is $2.4 million and that's just a wee bit steep for our blood. There are approximately 58 ad spots available and the game draws around 140 million viewers for all or part of the game. I guess if every viewer bought one $4 compact fluorescent bulb and left it on for 4 hours per day, in 5 years they would save over $2.2 billion, even after subtracting the cost of the bulb. I don't know
how great our return on investment for a 30-second commercial would be, but I'm sure you'll save big time on
any energy saving products.
