A reader posted this story which says that the Rubberband Man is coming back for a new round of commercials for the back-to-school sales.
Eddie Steeples, the actor from the first commercial, is doing this next set as well.
Most of my friends are probably wondering why I care so much, but I am a sucker for good advertising, and my blog has turned up a small group of people that feel like I do that the original commercial is awesome.
Someone let me know when they see the new ad and post a link to it.
I have seen the ad! It's really good, I like it a lot...and I am speaking as someone who is actually going back to school herself, not just as a mother who's looking forward to getting the kid back to school. ;)

The new "Back to School" ad is fantastic! Even better, OfficeMax has done a spin-off from their web home page that contains "Making of" features on both commericals. What a treat!
