Photo-Hunt: advertisement


My attention was caught by this Adidas window ad a few weeks ago---their Wanted Old Shoes promo. Unfortunately, I was not in the market for new running shoes. But I'm sure for parents with children who are going back to school this month, this promo was definitely a good deal. And for a good cause, too.

It sounds like a good deal. I don´t know if my old shoes, and I have some Adidas too, would be any good. They are usually so worn out by the end.

What a good idea. Hanna Anderson makes great and very good quality knit clothes for kids and she has a HannaDown program. You get a percentage off the next purchase when you send back your used clothes. She gives them to women's shelters and children's hospitals. Wonderful program.
My hunt is up here.

When I learned about this promo, I almost wanted to ask my cousin to present my old shoes. I liked the promotional photo.
