          It's German air.

          @jv:

          premium product i see, go on good sir

        • @laurence: I note this air claims to be environmentally friendly. Would using this air for all of my breathing needs help save the environment? I wonder if the packaging has "not to be taken internally" warning?

          @Osprey06:

          you are being ridiculous, pull your head in mate

    Is this to do with the Coles add that has the giant red tomato singing? Pretty terrible add and the tomato cant sing very well.

    • +9

      What do you expect from a piece of fruit?

      • +11

        Well it could at least dance and do the salsa.

      • +4

        Fruits are usually good at performing arts.

  • +3

    spose it could be an okay backscratcher

  • +1

    new way for checkout staff to say "i'm free" without being picked up?

  • +1 for Coles and their hilarious ads.

  • +6

    as a professional musician i can happily say these are really solid and reliable guitars for air shows.

      i found the chocolate post only an hour ago but still got the barcode, dont give up hope!

  • +11

    does it have Band 28?

    • +3

      This is the Down Down edition, which really only covers Antarctica. You'd be wanting the Down Under edition for full Aussie coverage.

    • +8

      This is FOR Band 28, OzBargain's new rock band.

        What's the track listing for the debut album?

          @kahn: Im 3 verses and a chorus into Didnt need you but I bought you anyway. :)

          I woke up this morning and before even yawning,
          my phone's running hot in my hands.

          Opened a site, and to my great delight
          an android with all the right bands.

          I didn't need you, but I bought you anyway.
          Never wanted you, 'til I saw you today…

          A bargain, a saving, can't stop this craving
          for all that glitters and beeps.

          Work in progress. There's a bit of falsetto in there for the chorus. :)

        • @Gravy:
          There's also the 5 cent cup protector and the keyring led to mention for the next two verses.

        • +1

          @Gravy: Hey. Got a demo out yet? :P

        • @flaminglemon: Had recorded the first couple of verses in Audacity within about 10 minutes of my post, complete with some badly strummed uke backing… but then got distracted by a squirrel in my peripheral vision.

          Edit, you just spurred me on to knocked out a few more verses.

        • @Gravy: Squirrel in your… Gir? Is that you?

        • +1

          @flaminglemon: Hadnt seen your Gir reference so had to look it up, but here's what sprung to my mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrAIGLkSMls

  • Kids (under 4) had great time playing with these when they were given away for free last time.

    • Cool, more parents should give their kids advertising to play with - especially the under 8's. If you get them before age 8 you will have a largely unquestioning consumer for life.

      • +1

        Reminds me of how religions operate.

        • +1

          This is so incredibly true.

      • Do you really think the 2 and 3 year olds knew this was advertising? I specifically said under 4 and don't appreciate you twisting my words to include up to 8 year old children who can read.

        They were just happy to have "guitars" to run around. If anything the experience may have affected them to want to become rock stars.

  • +2

    Any deals for air guitar lessons?

  • +1

    There is nothing cooler than this. Nothing.

  • 1 for Insufficient Quantity

    I count more than 10. Stupid person.

    • +4

      x 776 Coles stores

  • +2

    I don't see a sign saying they are free. So you are just stealing then?

    • +1

      It's cool, they just let thieves walk out.

      • Yup. I've seen it. Even after telling them there were shady people shoving things in backpacks.

    • All stores supposed to be giving them away for free (to children) yesterday (4th May) to coincide with the launch of the new down down ads.

  • +1

    Sweet now I don't have to leave my computer chair to annoy my partner lol. May also possibly be used to poke fun at my niece lol.

    Can it be used to pick my nose extra deep?

  • +3

    Might give one to the wife and ask can she go "Down Down"

    • +2

      it certainly helps to point!

  • +7

    I'm happy to give free genuine air guitars (not cardboard imitations) to anyone who asks also. Pick-up only.

    • Whats the catch ;)

      How about quantity?

      • Catch: surprise sex.

      • Doesn't work in space, or underwater

      • Doesn't come with a warranty

  • -1

    Has anyone checked if they are actually at all stores, not just happened to be left out at that store and not to be taken in the first place? :P

    (cos I'd stop by to get one on the way home today!)

    • All stores supposed to be giving them away for free (to children) yesterday (4th May) to coincide with the launch of the new down down ads.

  • +2

    These are fake - genuine air guitars are not made from cardboard!

    • +1

      Yes, they are made of fantasies.

  • +3

    Cardboard air guitar? I'm confused. If I break a string, do I use a marker pen or canned-air to fix it.

  • -1

    Jesus, I can't think of a better way to furk the earth and the furk the future generation of the citizens on earth than to sing 'Down Down' and prancing around with a cardboard Coles guitar like a cokhed.

    • +2

      Nuclear war, killer flu epidemic, or farting in a packed elevator after eating brussels sprouts. Each is a far more potent way to 'furk' humanity than to wave a cardboard guitar in the air.

  • This air guitar is far heavier than my old one. 0/10 - would not buy again.

  • -3

    they are for decorating the store not for giveaway.

  • +1

    Who would have thought free Alien tickets could be trumped. What a day.

  • +6

    I would like to point out… there was no strings attached to this deal!

    • +1

      So…you have to hold your air guitar with your hands?

  • +1

    I can't wait for the I'm free cardboard cut-outs from Woolies

  • +1

    anyway heres wonderwall.

  • Great, all I need now is a little red Coles car and to turn into the grinning moron people are portrayed as in the TV ads and Wesfarmers work will be done.

  • +1

    saw these at the service desk when collecting my free chocolate bar

    potentially the most Ozbargain thing ive ever seen other than this deal.
