Walmart commercial

I can't find the video but...

I just saw a commercial for walmart this morning, it starts out showing items you can buy at Walmart (bike helmets, pillow pet, cotton balls). And then it shows a mom & teen girl and the girl is just learning how to drive. Then it shows the kids in the back seat and they are wearing the helmet, have pillow pets stuffed around them for protection. But the carseat usage looked really good (for the split second shot) The girl was in a (highback I think) booster and the boy was in a FF seat, and both kids were older, like the boy was probably about 5 and the girl even older than that.

I was pretty amazed, (and going to search for the video more).

ETA - OK, found a video http://viad.tv/video-10275/walmart-driving/
And both kids are harnessed.

I'm really surprised that Walmart actually made an effort like that!:thumbsup:

Not only was the carseat use good, it was funny. LOL

That ad made me laugh. I love the faces on everyone. It is nice to see good seat usage too.

OT, but Walmart also had another one that made me laugh out loud....they show all these things for an Easter egg hunt...eggs, candy, baskets, and then cans of paint. Then they show the egg hunt and none of the kids is finding the eggs....the mom walks up with an egg to the dad and says "camo eggs, who would do that?" The dad points at himself and says "brilliant".

:ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO:
Thats my daycare kids when my mom drives them in the big van. the first time they asked "Does Miss Susan know you are driving her van?" Margarete 2.5yrs at the time and then Jacob 3.5 at the time asks "Are you sure you know how to drive the beast?" Then my mom puts them in and straps them in and Jacob grabs his adjuster and pulls hard and looks up at my mom and says "just in case."

I stopped it to look and I think the girl is in a long outgrown cosco hbb. (The pink one.) It is definitely a Dorel seat and it is a dark pink color. I can't figure out the boy's seat, though.

I think they're both Dorel based on the chest clips. I'm not too uptight about the seats being outgrown - you can't see much anyway with all the pillow pets

I just think it's awesome that they're both harnessed.

I loved both commercials... even with the probably outgrown one... I couldn't tell for sure, even with the DVR capable... Ruthie was just thrilled to see her Ladybug pillow pet on tv.
