Geico's Gecko road trip commercial series depicts the Gecko traveling around the United States whether it be in the Silicon Valley, Texas, or a New York Apartment speaking about protecting his belongings: boat, car, apartment, stuff while doing everyday activities like ordering food, posting selfies, hiking, etc. In all of the commercials, the Gecko uses the rhetoric "I have helped a lot of people save a lot of money," drawing on Americans insatiable desire not to spend their money on non-material goods as well as ensure that their valuable material goods will be safe.

Do you ever see an ad or commercial on TV that just sticks with you? Maybe it is a catchy jingle, or one of your favorite actors or actresses.
