This is a little off-topic but the biggest thing that bugs me is that I've been hearing this Snapshot discount thing promoted ENDLESSLY for the last few months on TV & radio--commercial after commercial after commercial. And in all the months of commercials Progressive has NEVER EXPLAINED WHAT THIS WAS!!
All they have is cheesy commercials of a freaky girl taking pictures of a guy in wierd poses, a freaky girl talking to a guy in a helicopter about how big this thing is, etc. How hard is it to say, "We plug this thing into your car and it records how safely you drive. If you drive safe we'll give you a discount."?! I seriously think I've seen this thing advertised at least 100 times and until I read this post I had no idea what it was!
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but when you're trying to sell me something, I'd actually like you to tell me what it is, not just attempt to amuse me or show me pictures of smiling, happy people!
