Ikea wants pregnant women to pee on an advertisement in a magazine for a discount
Washington Post ^ | January 11 | Allison Klein

Ikea has a new advertisement that’s running in a Swedish magazine and asks women to pee on the page to learn about a discount.

Once a woman urinates on a strip in the ad, a discount is revealed only if she is pregnant, according to a report in Adweek.

“Peeing on this ad may change your life,” reads the promotion in Amelia magazine.

It continues: “This ad is also a pregnancy test. Pee on the marked area and wait a moment. If you are expecting, you will get a surprise right here in the ad.”

I guess this means that pregnancy tests are inexpensive to produce.

To be honest, that’s a brilliant marketing ploy! Being pregnant is a gift, and if your ‘pee’ has the proper hormone balance and can activate a money saving advertising message aimed specifically at you as a pregnant woman, how great is that? I love it!

It’s sex discrimination. No matter how many times I pee on the advertisement it will NEVER let me have a discount.

I guess they could predict it would get attention, but is that really going to help them sell more particle board? Maybe is’s a Scandinavian thing?

What kind of discount is available for a good dump?
Has that also been researched?

In British vernacular “pissing” means get getting drunk.

If you pee on the Washington Post, you won’t get a secret message but you’ll feel better.

That’s a great point.

But pissing means something different in that song.

If it's really good dump. You might get a book worthy of said dump.
