Now we all know that FeelingFlirty talks about adult things. It’s no secret. I don’t shy away from that. I’m actually quite proud that we can talk about most anything here and it’s OK.

I received an “invitation” from Social Spark to join their advertising program. So I did. They asked me to deposit some money into my account, which I did. I deposited $100 for a trial to see if it was worth pursuing. We created a campaign and when we hit the submit button, they charged my credit card for an additional $93. From my way of thinking if I had $100 in there and I spent $93, there should be $7 left. No so, they want to hold my $100 for some reason only known to them.

Only known to them because we’ve written to them several times and all we get is the acknowledgement that they’ll look into it.

That’s not the worst of it. Now that I have nearly $200 invested with these people, they tell us that we’ll have to advertise another site because mine is too adult.

Wait a minute, I thought. If they KNEW I was adult when they emailed me their fricken spam, why didn’t they say right up front that they’d like me to give them $200 and go away.

So, they mislead you going in, don’t reply to emails in anything like a timely manner and keep your money and give you nothing of value. If you were considering spending any money with them, check them out because my experience was rotten.

On my last visit to the states I would cringe every time I saw a tampon ad on TV. Blue skies, “you poor thing” attitudes and well, boring.

Australians are very down to earth and accept all bodily functions as normal and acceptable. If you want to sell tampons to women, then make the ad interesting and funny. Like this Australian commercial for U tampons.

The Australians are fond of the saying, “Thank God that we got the convicts and the Americans got the Puritans.” Nothing says it more than this commercial about all the things a beaver is good for.
