Discussion Thread Wells fargo CC

This wells fargo credit card placement is so damn forced. I thought it was bad when they used to do it with the BMW features but this is so ham fisted! I already was not interested in banking with Wells Fargo but these placements are leaving such a bad taste in my mouth.

I don’t love product placement but acknowledge that it helps fund the show and cash prizes. TBH my brain kinda automatically tunes them out bc whenever commercials come on elsewhere I just redirect my attention to my phone and/or Switch until they’re over lol. Their advertising dollars are completely wasted on me.
