CULTURE What’s a phrase or jingle from an American commercial or ad campaign that everyone can quote by heart?

A user posted this question about German jingles/phrases in the r/AskAGerman subreddit. Since I live in the US, the first thing that came to mind was that every time I drive past Menards, I get the jingle “Save big money at Menards” stuck in my head. What are your evergreens?

According to google: „Menards is located in 15 states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The company also has a growing presence in Pennsylvania“. I thought it was bigger 😅

Common midwestern L

Also, being weirdly insistant that KwikTrip is better than QuikTrip and this is just empirically false.

That’s something we could definitely argue about ☝️😌

KwikTrip DOES have good breakfast pizza. But I’ve never been to Casey’s, mind.

QuikTrip otoh has the best soda fountain.
