Honest Aldi

McCann Erikson is doing some great ads for Aldi right now to showcase the strength of their own label range. I particularly like this one not only because it's hilarious, but also because it's bravely honest and edgy. Aldi has let McCann poke fun at one of their key shopping demographics. She's the perfect character to sell mayonnaise. Everything is so well chosen: from her accent, to her hair, to the stack of gossip mags on the couch, they've painted a brilliant picture that will give an instant character read to the general UK audience, and hopefully sell more Aldi mayonnaise in the process...
