Who thinks Coca-Cola christmas advert is the start of christmas?

Spinal2k2 · 12 Nov 2011 at 21:57

the coke truck ad for me, they started too it early this year (today was the first day for the ad to be shown on TV) thats too early, should wait till december.

Its going to end up like everything else, the coke christmas ad will be on TV in the middle of summer soon.

Its become a modern tradition....the coca cola christmas truck. Given that they also popularised the modern image of Santa (not invented as some believe), it seems appropiate.

Eww Christmas. It should be illegal to sell anything Christmas related until the beginning of December at the very earliest.

With a face like that I can't see you selling much for the next couple of centuries. Best you can hope for is witch trials, dunking chairs or alien intervention!

They don't use the one with the trucks any more do they? The adverts for the past few years have been crap.

christmas starts when i hear that coke song:

sparklebox · 12 Nov 2011 at 22:23

I do unfortunately. However it has been shown too early for me this year - I'm not ready! x

The coke advert definitely marks the start of the festive season. I love the build up to Xmas and the big day itself. Bring it on.

Too early for it if you ask me. Xmas starts on Dec first in my eyes although the Xmas shopping is finished for me.

TDevlin · 12 Nov 2011 at 23:41

This is on already!!! I hardly ever watch the tv so most adverts pass me by. Just as well though, I'm not ready for christmas yet.

Globul · 12 Nov 2011 at 23:45

I haven't it seen on TV yet so its not Christmas yet, but its nearly half way through the month, so I need to start on my lists

No, and I think it's quite sad and pathetic that peoples lives could be governed by when a multi-national company decide to roll out an advert to sell fizzy drinks.

And I'm not humbug when it comes to christmas, I really like christmas but I just fail to understand this 'tradition' that seems to have become popular in the last few years.

Chill....... It's only an advert.

Exactly. But it's clearly very important to some people and that's what I don't 'get'.

As you said, it's only an advert.

It just gets people in the mood for Christmas that's all.
