Sprint Quick-Fixes Out of Kindness … or Total Brand Negligence

sprint-quickpeel.jpg

Sprintcuts, a handy-dandy Sprint campaign, gives tips on how to quick-peel a banana and dry nail polish in a blink.

The campaign leads people to Waitless.org, which shares other somewhat-productive tips on “time rebates” that are supposed to leave you with the sense that Sprint = time savings.

We’ve actually seen this spot, Instant Baby Soothe, a few times on either Hulu or ABC.com. We thought it was cool, but until this very moment we had no idea whose ad it was. Which would actually be helpful, because then we’d know who to blame when our relatives “WTF?” us as we carry their spawn to a nearby sink.

Big-ups to Candace for sharing.
