When preparing for the holidays, sticking to the grocery list is crucial – especially when it comes to grandma’s favorite dish. Progressive Insurance and creative agency Arnold Worldwide show the importance in the fourth spot of their “Replay” campaign, launching Monday, November 21, which features a family gathered at the dinner table for the holidays.
When the grandmother asks for her favorite sweet potatoes, the mother and daughter of the family begin to disagree over the grocery list. Did the mother request sweet potatoes or mashed potatoes? Pat-ay-to, pat-ah-to. No big deal, right? Nope.
The challenge flag is thrown, and Progressive’s “Replay” appears. Once it’s proven the mother did in fact ask for mashed potatoes, she sarcastically points out that her daughter picked a great time to start listening to her. Watch below:
REELated:
Quote from Sean McBride, CCO: “The holidays are prime season for two things: football and familial disagreements, and this spot combines both. For any of these “what really happened replay” spots to work as well as they do, there needs to be real truth in the details. I think we’ve all experienced the tension around the holidays that we find in this spot. One minute you’re hugging and thrilled to be reunited, the next you’re fuming about how someone parked too close to your car or, in this case, whether or not sweet potatoes were on the grocery list,” shares Quote Sean McBride, CCO of Arnold.
