@Pook365: Well yeah, if you've already made up your mind as to which brand you prefer, the adverts not going to make you change your preference.. but that's not to say an advert didn't get you to try both of those drinks in the first place.

..and I just know this will get posted, so here it is before anyone else does it. =P
