But 3 mil. can easily translate to 100 mil. in revenue from upcoming sales for a company.

It's down some this year. It's closer to 2.8 million dollars. You're absolutely right T316. The Pepsi company realized that the amount of revenue would be significant enough and are not having a commercial this year.
So Meo, you think the major franchises in this world should donate the 2.8 million dollars to other countries and take an annual loss? Yeah, lets throw that money at Ethiopia and Haiti.
We're greedy, but it could be worse. It could be/has been so much worse.

The way I look at it is that it is 'their' money (compaines), and sense it is their's they can choose how they want to spend it. If people want to stop seeing them 'waste' money then they might want to consider not buying any of their products anymore. Just my 2 sense.

Although I said starving people in the "world" it was just a statement.....Let me reword just for you PEZ....

out of fareness, if they didn't think they could turn a buck, then they wouldn't be dropping the 3 million...
Plus that 3 million does pay some's salary. And that doesn't even count production costs of those commercials, more money being paid to people, thus creating or at least funding, jobs...

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
OR
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Teach a man how to own the fishing pond and you’ll feed his children’s children. Teach him to own fishing ponds in multiple markets and you’ll feed his family to the fourth generation.

Why waste money donating money for food when you can spend it on teaching them and buy seeds instead of canned food? Last time I checked hot dogs and canned soup don't grow on trees...

Doesnt our King, I mean president, have a fund we could use for the commercials? If someone acts quick enough they could put that in the health care bill and we could pay for it!
I hear you Meowzer! It is a lot of money and I wish that we could all do more. If the money we all give really got to the people it was intended for I think the problem would be taken care of. I think corruption gets a lot of our money.

Whatever you do, don't bash on Pepsi. Have you seen the Pepsi commercials?
