QOD Friday 12-21 "COMPANY SLOGANS"

by fantine33
I wanted to do one on advertising jingles, so I could title it "Jingle All the Way", but it's hard to give jingles that don't mention the product, like, 49586033 times. I wonder why?

So, here are some familiar (to me, anyway ha!) slogans, just give the company (or product name, as the case may be).

1. All the sugar and twice the caffeine.

2. What’s on the table, Mabel?

3. Leave the driving to us.

4. The toughest job you’ll ever love.

5. I'd rather fight than switch.

QOD: Think.

5 Point Bonus: From 1979 to 2003, this was GE’s official slogan.

5 Point Bonus Bonus: What slogan replaced it?
