THE SPOT
"Circus," MasterCard’s latest ad in its long-running "Priceless" campaign, showcases the day-to-day activities of a troupe of performers. The black-and-white :30 features such purchases as "Cannon balls: $129 online," "Hula hoops: $60 online" and "Elephant shampoo: $42 online." Finally, "Not having to pay for any weird stuff that shows up on your bill: Priceless."
Spot broke in October.
