Plus, they've gone and put toy cars and a stuffed bunny in an aisle clearly marked TRAINS. Tsk.

Well the Sony campaign was going quite well until this happened:
As if you'd buy a Vaio for a child of her age. They're £600!

Perhaps they're cheaper without the charger .
Also I wouldn't be surprised to see that happen. I saw a horrifying tweet the other day saying "omg mum and dad have bought me a macbook pro for christmas". THAT is expensive.

I like the new Skoda advert a lot. It starts of showing their Cake car, before they all get scared away by mod-rock looking people who build a car with Hack saws, sharp teeth and head butting. My favourite bit has to be when one of the Cake car makers comes along with jelly for the headlamps, resulting in scowls and maybe a shove.
The tagline? 'Made of meaner stuff'.

I think it looks too much like europeans trying too hard to look scary.
Anyhoo, what is with that AWFUL McDonald's festive advert with the morons half singing? Gets right on my wick.
Watching the dreadful Foot Locker advert means I feel the need to check: they ARE still Trainers and not "Sneakers" over here, right? That advert contains the word "sneakers" about 8 times.

John Lewis have had to remove the sad looking dog from their Christmas campaign, following complaints from dog lovers that it was "cruel" not to have the animal indoors in the warmth, instead of surrounded by shredded polythene snowflakes on a film set, reports Private Eye.
