Are we consumers REALLY this stupid?

PHN  I was recently reading the back of my Crest Pro Health Night toothpaste while brushing my teeth and noticed there is actually a line on it that reads: “Crest Pro Health Night is effective both day and night.” 

 

Damn, wish I’d known that before spending all that money on my Morning, Mid-Day, and Early Evening toothpastes as well.

    Reminds me of the Kodak Land Camera - named after a guy named “Land”. People thought it was unsuited for use at sea or in the air, I guess.
