Wal-Mart’s pharmacy ads are far out, man

Whoa, dude. Wal-Mart’s got the hook-up! At least, that’s the message wags might infer from a pair of Bernstein-Rein spots supporting the retail giant’s pharmacies. One ad’s imagery (different types of pills morphing into flowers and playground equipment, shown here) is downright trippy. There’s even a suggestion of time distortion, with a woman’s voice informing us, “When I pick up my family’s prescriptions at Wal-Mart, I’m picking up a few extra minutes in my day.”
