Signs, Signs, Everywhere there's signs
"Signs, Signs, Everywhere there's signs
Blocking up the scenery
Breaking up my mind"
Yeah, but there's plenty of money in these signs, as you can see in this story:
Blocking up the scenery
Breaking up my mind"
Yeah, but there's plenty of money in these signs, as you can see in this story:
Asia Francis, 21, auctioned off the advertising rights to her pregnancy on eBay. The winning bid of $1,000 went to a California Internet company, giving it exclusive rights to temporarily tattoo its brand-name on Francis's belly and broadcast the birth of her daughter live on the Internet... Twenty-one year old Andrew Fischer... earned more than $37,000 last year by bearing a corporate logo on his forehead for a month. Michele Hutchison of Lanhorne, Pa., auctioned ad rights for her baby's clothing on eBay last year, seeking $1,000 for a months' lease... "It's a well-held theory in the advertising industry that the average person on the street receives up to 3,000 branded messages a day"... The pregnant belly is prime real estate for auction because its likely to get people talking... "If they were to buy the free coverage they will receive for this, it would cost them many times more the fee they paid the person".OK, it's time to put that huge nose of yours to good use.
