Recently, I wrote about the Starbucks Let's Merry site, a dedicated holiday site from the coffee chain that provides customers with gift ideas, information about its latest offerings, Starbucks-branded e-cards and more, and now the company has released a holiday commercial as part of this holiday campaign.
This Starbucks Let's Merry commercial is cute and spirited, featuring animated coffee cups singing 'Jingle Bells' as they are placed on a Starbucks counter to be picked up. A woman with a Starbucks drink continues the song after leaving the coffee shop and a man passes by, whistling the tune.
Full of joy and spirit, the Starbucks Let's Merry ad is one to watch, especially if you like traditional holiday commercials.
