Influence of Advertising on My Life Advertising has a large influence on my life and the lives of my friends。 Advertising has an influence on the cars we drive, the clothes we wear, and the food we eat。

Advertising influences the cars my friends and I drive。 The television commercials paint an unrealistic picture of how good life is once you own their product。

For example, one of the commercials for Volvo implies that a person doesn"t have class unless he drives a Volvo。 According to the Cadillac commercial, a car can not be elegant unless it is a Cadillac。

Magazine ads are very similar to television ads。 Magazine ads show beautiful women and handsome men gathered around an automobile, and imply that the reader can be like the people in the ad。

Advertising has an influence on those clothes we wear。 Television and magazines show hair-thin models wearing different articles of clothing。

The ads for Jordache or Calvin Klein are a good example of this fact。 My friends and I sometimes feel that if the clothes look good, then they must be made good。

We also hope the clothes look as good on us as they did on the models。 Finally, advertising influences our eating habits。

There are ads for hamburgers, hotdogs, pizzas, beer, candies, cakes, and the list keeps going。 Pizza Inn gives us more of the things we like。

The people at Burger King treat us right。 Everyone wants to be an Oscar Mayer hot dog。 Michelob wants us to put a little weekend in our week。

Of course, relief is spelled Rolaids。 With ads like these facing us every night who could resist? In conclusion, I"d like to say that advertising influences the way everybody lives。

The cars we drive, the clothes we wear, and the food we eat are all a result of advertising。
