Wedgie Free?
Am I the only one that finds the new Hanes No Ride Up panties hilarious and a bit ridiculous? Is “Be Wedgie Free!” the classiest slogan they could come up with?
When I saw the commercial for these a few minutes ago, I about died laughing. All the different women wiggling around, trying to de-wedge themselves… I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me.

I have never had a wedgie before. So i guess they wouldnt be so great for me. I havn’t seen the ad, but the picture is really hilarious. Loving the look on her face!

i was just a little surprised when they actually said “wedgie”. definitely made me look up and take note.
i actually prefer a wedgie (i.e. thong) to VPL. it’s just how i do.

I think it’s pretty funny too. You’re not the only one. Although since I’m home and watch a whole lot of TV these days I’m kind of sick of the campaign already.

I’m proud to say that I have one of those pairs behind her :p
I’m not sure that wedgies are the biggest of my concerns…lol.

Yeah, these commercials are pretty dang funny. Hmmm… I wonder if those undies actually work? haha.

so yes I’ve seen this commercial.. and it didn’t sell me. Cale was like “What is wrong with those women???” lol. Remember the little gift game you had for me before my wedding? Let’s just say Cale likes the ones you chose.

I find myself highly skeptical, even after Sarah Chalke came out all self-assured and happy with her new Hanes undies on. Could there REALLY be such a thing as wedgie-free underwear??

I have not heard of these. How odd :)

I think those are funny commercials too. I would give them a try… if they are wedgie AND pantyline free…. I’d be 100% sold. A customer for life!

the ONLY undies that assure no wedgie for me are thongs …and I’ve been wearing them since I was 14.
I haven’t seen the commercial but already I assume false advertising! ahah. Sarah Chalke is pretty funny though so maybe it works!

That is such a funny picture. Ridiculous underwear, but funny.

hilarious. I WISH I would have seen the commercial. And I have to say the photo looks like she is about to drop one….

Wow….that is a horrible picture. I have to agree it looks like she is about to drop the kiddies off at the pool (if you know what i mean).
I love commercials but i think this one is weird with all the wiggling, and stretching. :)

hahahah i feel the same way. i think they are out of ideas!

Well, let me tell you, they know how to market their panties, because I want to buy them now simply because they got Sarah Chalke to be in their ads.
The girl is a peach, for realsies.

Well, I think maybe the point is to get us to take notice, like “Did they just say wedgie???” it’s just shocking enough without being actually vulgar, ya know? I have to admit, the campaign has intrigued me, although I’ve yet to purchase a trial pair… I’m with the previous poster- it’s thongs here, seeing as you never have to worry about VPL. And besides, if it’s going to ride up anyway, why not have it occur with less fabric? haha That was TMI, sorry.
BTW, I’ve been reading for awhile, I’m going to give you some link love. Feel free to check on my page to see who the heck I am :-)

@Rachel &
@…loveMaegan: I’m with you two on this! It’s just easier to avoid it altogether!
@wishcake: It is hard to resist Sarah Chalke… she is just hilarious and too cute.
@Natali: Thank you very much! And you make a very good point, hahahaha.
