Most Annoying Christmas Advert 2009
(Sorry didn't know weather to post this in entertainment, current affairs or lifestyle!!)

OK - So it's started - what's the most annoying Christmas advert this year?

Mine so far is that Iceland advert with Jason Donovan.

Re: Most Annoying Christmas Advert 2009
I don't think I find any that are annoying before Christmas, but pretty much every advert from Boxing day onwards I do, from DFS (etc), magazines, Hoseasons, Creme Eggs, and anything to do with anything sales related which are normally repeated every 20 minutes.

Re: Most Annoying Christmas Advert 2009
The most anoying ad I saw was last year, can't remember the company but the ad said sale ends 5pm christmas eve.

Only one problem, It was 10:55pm christmas eve.


Also the ads that get you to save for next christmas that appear on boxing day.

Or you get a supermarket telling you about its Christmas offers late on Christmas eve sometimes even saying the offer finishes at closing time on Christmas eve.
