I don't like that Asda advert

[llareggub]

So soon after the horrid cbeebies ad, I don't have the patience for an advert that grows bigger and hides threads. Can it just stay small, please?

[HelenMumsnet]

Hmm, it shouldn't be doing that, llareggub. No siree.

Will try to track it down and work out what's happening.

[HelenMumsnet]

OK, it seems that our ad agency has been supplied with an expandable ad - even though we don't allow expandable ads on Mumsnet because, as you say, they get in the way of threads.

So we've asked for a new ad that doesn't expand.

Sorry for all the annoyingness in the meantime.

[llareggub]

Thanks for that! Now, if it had been a Waitrose ad...

[llareggub]

Grrr...it is still there, being all rollovery and annoying.

Morning. Just popping in to let you know that we are on the case about this.

It definitely shouldn't be rolling over anything. We are having a strop at words with our ad agency...
