I feel sorry for the person from McGraths Hill in NSW advertising the Millard Horizon 2002 campervan in this weeks Sydney edition of the Trading Post. The advertising folks demonstrate that money speaks and cover the Millard Horizon ad with a post it type ad for NRMA Insurance. It is not a good look for NRMA - big business paying to cover up a regular person’s ad.

When you rip the NRMA ad off, part of the text for the Millard Horizon ad comes with it - in my case I cannot read the phone number. I don’t like the stuck on ads. They are either desecrating revered mastheads or showing individual advertisers, as in the case with the Sydney Trading Post, that they don’t matter.
