Implications:  I am seeing/hearing a campaign that starts out, “Okay, you’ve demonstrated great personal restraint as we’ve come through a tumultuous time… but now, it’s time to reward yourself…”

Does your product or service represent that kind of long-awaited, well-deserved reward?  Or… does your brand represent the kind of extreme value that lets the consumer fund that treat (with all the money they saved)?
