They're a strictly NE/Upper Midwest chain. Unfortunately, the commercial isn't online.

That's got to be a difficult name to market. Might be one of those things that's been around so long locals don't even think about it.

I saw it yesterday and it made me smile... I tried to look for it on You Tube but couldn't find it.

My wife spotted it before me, but you can truly see that the Buddy has become a very popular scoot.

That was not me, although I do provide alot of scoots for TV and Film. Look for a red Buddy on an upcoming episode of Desperate Housewives. We also rented a creme Buddy for a Mercedes ad. Last week we also did a Hyundai commercial with a bunch of scoots including some Buddies.

After I wrote the 1st post I thought depending on how you pronounce it , it can sound kind of dirty ....

I just saw the "Herberger" commercial, except around here the store is named "Elder Beerman" (both are owned by The Bon-Ton Stores). Same commercial though, same Sunset Buddy, you can see where they used FX to change "Herberger" to "Elder Beerman" on the side of a bus.
