In this ad directed by Christian Shilling, a painfully indecisive boy relies on a coin to make some life choices.
We follow the boy into adulthood, making an array of decisions throughout his childhood as he decides what to spend his buck on. Choices span which flavor of ice cream he should get, what pet to buy, whether he should say yes to a proposal, which wire to cut on a bomb and whether he should take someone off of life support in a hopsital. In the end, he spends his precious coin on a pack of Mentos, because, as the shot says, "Who says no to Mentos?"
The whimsical and absurd commerical has a colour palette similar to the sweet's iconic packaging.
