The writer very cleverly uses the phrase ‘Don’t get caught’ in the beginning of advertisement and repeats the same phrase throughout the advertisement and ends the advertisement to maintain the audience's attention.

The advertisement gives a sense of urgency to buy the product because the advertisement says that the chocolate is irresistible.
