Between the commercials for shopping, and the Medicare Supplement Health Insurance, I think there's been enough of it for the day....... About the Medicare.....Dec. 5 is the deadline and am sure that everyone knows that by now. Will be glad when that is over with. Anyhow, these 2 things seem to have taken over the commercial spots...... Enough already.

I am sure there will be comments on this that I don't have to have the TV on, there is mute, etc.....know the usual comments that will be posted here, but would really like to hear the views of others.

Re: Are You Watching TV Today?

Seniors watch a lot of daytime TV and Dec. 7th (the real deadline) is just over a week away.

There is a LOT of money on the line...based on the choices seniors make.

By law, companies can't solicit for Medicare customers by calling them on the phone. So TV advertising is very effective.

There's music playing here which surprises me since the husband is a football fanatic. I usually tivo shows I watch so I can zip through the commercials.

You'll need the Medicare Supplement Health Insurance when you get the credit card bill after all the shopping.

Everyone makes typos. The odd thing here is that "5" and "7" are hit with different hands. Pretty big mistake!
