Or Advertisement

I have always gone with advertisment not Advertise Ment

You?

Arguable that it’s spelt advertisement however you pronounce it

I prounounce it "advertisement", like they do in the US. UK people usually do it the other way though from what I've heard.

Advertisment (pronunciation of the noun) but advertising in the verb.

Looks like most British people pronounce it in the British way of pronouncing it. Makes a lot of sense.
