V, what is Garnier?

**CarmieJo** · 01-21-2008, 10:13 PM

OK, so we have been watching the Australian Open. I recognize all of the ads I see except Garnier so I think it is something Australian. The logo is very attractive but doesn't give any clue as to its function!

Ah another tennis fan! I love watching tennis!

BTW Carmie, almost ended up in Raleigh this weekend for work. Dodged that bullet, but ended up working 12 hours on Sunday anyway....

Well if they want to send you next weekend there is a big frag swap in north Raleigh.

usually women beauty care range , although they do hair shampoos & other thing for men as well.

i always thought they were an american company, because all your celebs are promoting the products.

you see the capsicum spraying outbreak with the cops & the greeks.
damn that was a laugh!

**CarmieJo** · 01-22-2008, 08:21 PM

I've never heard of it. It is pretty funny that they use US celebs to push it. Obviously our consumerism ** umm excuse me discriminating taste** is world renowned! I asked my husband about it and he said it was an Australian sports drink! I thought that was funny because in America we advertise sports drinks with sports figures/equipment not dots.

lReef lKeeper · 01-22-2008, 09:04 PM

it is a line of hair care products that is all over american TV.

**CarmieJo** · 01-22-2008, 09:16 PM

They must not advertise them on ESPN.

yeah hair products, ive used there fruit poos, thats short for shampoo's people

**CarmieJo** · 01-24-2008, 09:32 AM

OK, I asked at work and they say we have them here too. I guess I need to spend more time in the poo aisle at the store and not just pick up the flavor of Suave that appeals to me that day.

Eeeewwwww! Your store has a POO aisle???? I knew things were different in NC, but come on....

veriann · 01-24-2008, 07:32 PM

Yeah we have a poo aisle as well , with slogans such as
"nothing say's i love you more that eating corn the night before". ok, im getting off the subject of poo's now

Tell me something, what is so totally unique to USA that you dont even export.

We have a product called fosters, & we do anything but keep in in australia..lol

**CarmieJo** · 01-24-2008, 09:39 PM

Well it is probably hard to get Eastern NC BBQ and Skyline Cincinnati Style Chili there. Heck, I can't even get Skyline here.

lReef lKeeper · 01-24-2008, 11:31 PM

we have skyline chili all over the place here !!

**CarmieJo** · 01-24-2008, 11:37 PM

Yeah, you are close enough to get it! I wish someone would open a franchise here! I love Skyline. In April my niece's color guard will go to the Winterguard World Competition in Dayton. I intend to eat there at least twice in the 2 nights/3 days we are in town!

veriann · 01-25-2008, 01:03 AM

skyline is a great brand of cars, but never seen an esky named after it.

Do you have tim tams over there?
what about vegemite?
