COMPANY CASHES IN ON ADVERTISING

AdAge reports that an American company is using currency for its adverts. Boodle, an online coupon company, is affixing circular inserts featuring its trade mark and a slogan on the back of 25 cent pieces which it will leave in the returned change slots of vending machines, payphones and the like. The inserts are removable to avoid damaging US currency, which is an offence in the States.

The IPKat says, are there no limits to where those intrepid little trade marks will get to?

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
