Most disgusting TV ad this season...

A group of "Christmas" carolers sing to the tune of "Deck The Halls."

"Go go go go go, shop shop shop shop."

(For JC Penney)

I've seen that. Pretty much the epitome of the commercialization of Christmas. NuclearDem Nov 2013 #3

They seem to have a flair for the obvious this year.

I haven't paid attention -- did they get rid of the obviously gay parents, etc in their ads?

I despise that commercial. They also have another one that is almost as despicable.

Had they been singing a real Christmas carol, it wouldn't have bothered me. But the way they did it just goes straight to the core idea "spend, spend spend spend, spend spend spend, "buy buy buy buy buyyyyyyy, buy buy buy buyyyyyy." "Give us your money, give us your money, give give give give give, give give give us your money!"
