Rudd Stimulus Package Sale Advertisements

Companies big and small have decided to try ramp up sales by targeting their marketing towards getting consumers to spend their $950 K-Rudd Stimulus Money with them. Here are just some of the advertisements I found:

Crossroads Rudd-O-Rama Sale

Kogan - Kevin 37 High Definition Stimulus Package

I have already written a blog on this one so I won't bore the regulars by repeating it. Follow this link to check out my Kogan's answer to your K-Rudd Stimulus Money Blog.

The following companies are also having 'Rudd Sales':

• Discount Ski Tubes and Gear - 15% OFF Everything Online & Storewide for the Month of April. Any order over $900 will receive FREE shipping Australia wide

• Inverted Body Boarding - All Boards are $250 and all t-shirts are $30 from Saturday April 11th to Monday 13th April.

I am actually a bit surprised at how tame most of the advertisements are, you would think that the word stimulus would have inspired all sorts of cheeky marketing campaigns. I have seen a few cheeky t-shirts with slogans like "Check out my Stimulus Package" and "I've got your stimulus package right here"

Let me know if you spot anything else blogworthy : )

Kogan's answer to your K-Rudd Stimulus Money

Now here is one very cheeky but clever marketing campaign from Kogan. On the 5th of March they launched their Kevin 37 High Definition Stimulus Package. Coinciding with the government handout they are selling a Kevin37 inch HD LCD TV which is going to cost $900 - the amount most Australian's will receive as part of the stimulus package.


They are also going to be giving out a free promotional t-shirt with each order that plays on the Kevin 07 Election Shirts.


Ha ha they were even cheeky enough to provide a link from their website to to ATO website where people can get more information on the tax bonus.
