Christmas Ads

Post by hermanmunster »

Seems to be big business these days - but these are 3 of my favourites:

The proper @johnlewis advert :wink: https://youtu.be/l5e_AKrc7tk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


Edeka 2014 https://youtu.be/jGp59DjX1pk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


And ... the Kmart Joe Boxers https://youtu.be/K3rHibpKMxc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; :oops:

This is my favourite ...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSJDfE-3vd0

It is a shame the Iceland advert had to be banned but, on the other hand, at least it has got more attention now.

True, though I must confess I don't watch adverts unless they are highlighted in the news!

Went into my local Aldi yesterday and there were Kevin toys everywhere they did make me smile!

Should have picked them up doodles - according to the news, there were fights in the aisles in some stores and people have listed them on ebay for £1000.....

I hope I never meet a person who would fight in the aisles for a cheap carrot toy, to then sell it on.....or to meet someoone who would then buy such a carrot at vastly inflated prices.....!!

My favourite ever Christmas advert is the John Lewis snowman and snow woman one from a few years back. I shed a little tear every time!
