Japanese advertising agency has started selling ad space on the armpits of attractive young women, snagging a beauty treatment clinic as its first client.
The Wakino Ad Company - “waki” is the Japanese term for armpit - was set up earlier this year as a subsidiary of the Liberta beauty products firm, which does a brisk trade in items designed to make armpits beautiful.
The company’s web site has images of sample adverts, with a rectangular, full-colour ad measuring nearly 2 inches by 4 inches nestled snugly into an armpit costing ¥10,000 (£68.60) for one hour of exposure. The models displaying the adverts are pictured grasping overhead handles on trains or stretching to show off their armpits.

Exchange rates may vary, but I checked and 10,000 yen would be just below 90 dollars. Not bad.

Before your armpit is approved to rent out - it must first pass inspection.
