Tic Tac offers consumers chance to ‘find a fiver’ in £1.7m campaign
Tic Tac has launched a new campaign offering consumers the chance to win a fiver in cash and get £5 off a minimum spend with a number of high street retailers.
Created by Aesop, the promotion will feature on over 15 million packets of Tic Tacs and will be supported by a £1.7m investment.
A spokesperson for Ferrero, owner of the Tic Tac brand, said: “Nothing makes your day like finding a fiver in your pocket, and we wanted Tic Tac fans to experience that feeling every time they open a pack. Our TV and online ads are similarly joyful, and we hope people across the country will be giving themselves five in no time.”
With the aim of appealing to those between the ages of 16 and 24, the ads feature a character in surreal scenarios who ‘gives himself five’ when he finds out about the promotion.
Tommy Smith, account director at Aesop Agency, said: “Not only are we driving awareness of a solid promotion with these ads, we’re also doing the job of brand reappraisal through the use of our character and the ‘self5’… a trend that will no doubt hit the streets soon after launch”.
Media has been handled by Rocket under OMD.

Aesop - A creative agency powered by narrative thinking
A lot of agencies talk about storytelling. And, at face value, it’s what all advertising agencies are doing. But for us storytelling isn’t an outcome, it’s a process.
Stories are the most powerful form of communication. They shape people; they shape culture. The most powerful stories have a clear underlying narrative structure, with a conflict at their very heart.
We use narrative thinking to unlock powerful creative strategies that create impact for brands in culture. Impact that turns your brand into a commercial success story.
