Regional chains that advertise outside their areas

All the TD (Toronto Dominion) Bank North's dropped the North from their advertising here in New England a couple of years ago, they are all one chain from Maine to Florida.
 
TD Banknorth merged with Commerce Bancorp, out of New Jersey, in 2008 and the 'Banknorth' was dropped.

Still seeing Denny's commercials here, but I don't know of any Denny's that are still here (Nashville). They seem to all be gone.

I should correct what I posted earlier. Apparently, there is still a Denny's in Fairview (west of Nashville, going toward Memphis).

Saw a Rally's ad for their chicken/fish bites that clearly showed the drive-thru lady handing them a Checker's (side of the) bag...

I saw an hour-long ad for the two chains.

The CEO of the company, posing as a new employee, shut one of the restaurants down because no one there seemed to know what they were doing.

That would be Undercover Boss. A few nights ago they were covering Checkers/Rallys undercover, IIRC.

There's also a Denny's in Jackson that's in with a Pilot station. I drive past it going to work several times a week.
 
whenever i see or hear an ad like that, i think of all the money they wasted. chances are i'm not going to drive to my nearest "Macy's department store" when it is a thousand miles away, on the other hand when i see an ad for Land Rover or Mini-Cooper, i wish there was a dealer in town because i would buy one, but the closest one is 500 miles away. sometimes, it sucks to live in fly-over country.
