What ads are so absolutely terrible that you actively avoid buying the product, even if it was one you often purchased. A few that meet that level lately are:

McDonald's.
Fanta.
Bacardi Rums, particularly the flavored ones.
Sprite.

Me too and I like Fanta and McD's fries, but their ads are so bad I feel it's almost an obligation not to buy the product.

On the otherside ...

the Corona ads are so good it almost makes me buy some of the beer. In fact, it's not that bad a beer. Certainly better than lite beer; I'll just do that.
