Ok, this is driving me insane. I'm sorry, but you guys are my last hope.
I need help trying to find a commercial that aired continuously from maybe the late 80s to early 90s.
The product was a set of plastic storage jars/ containers that stretched up and down like a Burple, but they were intended for pantries and the like... I think, I distinctly remember there was cereal spilling in the ad.
The only reason I post this is because I have looked everywhere. My friend confirms this ad exists. We are both going crazy. I've looked on ebay, in academic commercial catalogs, all over youtube.
Anyone possibly know what I'm talking about?!? PLEASE GOD I AM GOING INSANE

baleen - 2016-07-12 Alas, no. Thank you for trying.
It really looked like burple but larger and with a wide opening.
I know there have to be people on here who have seen these commercials.

gravelstudios - 2016-07-12 I'm almost certain that I remember that commercial as well, but I don't remember what they were called.

EvilHomer - 2016-07-12 What channels and/or shows did you watch, baleen? Perhaps if you narrowed down the places you might have seen the ad, it'd be easier to identify.

My brother and I wrote a lot of songs about popeet.

baleen - 2016-07-12 also please share the popeet songs, thx.

memedumpster - 2016-07-12 Yeah, there were six billion brands knockoff brands and store brands of these accordion jars.
Your obsession is weirder than they are, baleen, and you better hide your stars from That_guy.

Old_Zircon - 2016-07-13 Anyway, your next assignment is to find me the damn "Bag of Diamonds" edit of Cheech & Chong's Next Movie. It was on Comedy Central regularly for at least a decade (they restored the drug references in 2001 and I first saw it in 8th or 9th grade), there must be a tape of it out there someplace.

I really want to see The Body Human: Facts for Boys now. It looks pretty funky!
The scarecrow actor is eerily familiar and that will drive me crazy now.

Pretty much my entire childhood (at least the parts where I had access to TV) all I knew about rich people came from TV, and mainly commercials. So from this small sample, I would have been picturing rich people just eating Stoffer's pizza while playing table tennis and going to playgrounds to talk about their underwear. laughing to the bank all the way!
I would also picture the rich kids at school living this way in the privacy of their own homes, just exuberant over having dishwashers and name brand cereal.

Why was it so g'd important to find this commercial for, what was it? A popét?
|
Maggot Brain - 2016-07-12 Also, CORN BRAN! Wow, I was born too late :-( All the utility of bran and the great taste of corn! Man, it really was morning in America in the 1980's.
|
baleen - 2016-07-12 It was important because it happened and we couldn't find it.
I think it's just getting older.
You start to want to preserve things. Like take this jug of my urine, for example. I've labeled it "Monday," and that's important to me.
