Aaah. The Bad Thing cometh. And it's only mid-November.
Oh well, they aren't quite as gag-inducing as those Kellogs Cornflakes ads
*sulk* Christmas will never be the same without any more Woolies ads on telly.
And although Coca-Cola weren't the first to dress Father Christmas in red, they are credibly credited with persuading us all to see him in no other colour sonce 1931, and for that they should settle up...
Out of court is fine.
Come on Coke, I'm broke, and you can easily afford to buy off my seasonal misery. At least until next year...
No Hollidays are coming adds until after the holy man who gives presents to sweet children has returned to Spain. Yes it is mostly a Dutch thing.

Luckily, due to work, i'm missing all of the annoying Christmas adverts that bombard viewers in the usually loooong run up to the actual holiday. Although I must admit, if there are any ads that I don't mind seeing they're the Coca Cola adverts. Shame YouTube is blocked down here.

However these adverts seem to symbolise the approaching holliday season.
As such they tend to be well liked in Europe and the USA.
