Have you seen MasterCard is sponsoring a contest to make one of their famous ‘priceless’ TV commercial from some lucky entrant’s idea? I’m working on my entry now:
Packing Boxes: $75
(Tight shot: hands wrapping vase in newspaper, placing in box)
Moving Van: $250
(Interior shot: movers taking furniture out of little apartment while old lady fusses at them to be careful. Her adult son has a box in his arms and smiles sheepishly)
Attorney Fees: $2000
(Backlit shot: Son shaking hands with attorney over paperwork)
Never Having to Deal with Mom Again: Priceless
(Pull-back shot: Son waving good-bye to confused Mom left on steps of nursing home.)
Voice over: You can’t put a price on self-absorption. For everything else, there’s MasterCard!
Fade to Black
