SqueezeTheBanker.com – STRESS DOLLS RELEASED

CreativeFeed creates stress dolls to help America cope with economic woes

NEW YORK, NY, December 1, 2008 – CreativeFeed announced the release of its
Squeeze the Banker line of stress dolls today. The stress dolls are inspired by three
symbols of U.S. fiscal and monetary policy: current Federal Reserve Chairman Ben
Bernanke, Secretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson and former Federal Reserve
Chairman Alan Greenspan.

CreativeFeed, a boutique agency with offices in SF and NYC produced the dolls as a
response to recent economic upheaval.

“We’re a nimble agency that creates and produces ideas quickly. One benefit of our
size is being able to respond immediately to seismic social events,” says Arthur Ceria,
CreativeFeed founder.

As to how the characters were chosen, Ceria explains, “We thought that a stress ball
in the shape of the principal icons of our financial system was a funny (and maybe
healthy) way of facing the strain we are all under.”

“These stress dolls are a symbolic effort at turning the tables on what for most of us is a
source of considerable strain. But the economic downturn is of course serious business.
That’s why a percentage of each sale will go to Modest Needs,” says Michael Quinn,
CreativeFeed Partner.

This is the first retail product launch from CreativeFeed. But for anyone who knows the
agency, this type of thinking is not unusual. Creating simple, thought-provoking ideas
is a daily norm at the shop.

The dolls are available for purchase at SqueezeTheBanker.com
