The Jingles, they are-a-comin’

Now that another Halloween is in the books, marketers throughout the land can put away their vampire costumes and turn their attention to that make or break retail bonanza that is the holiday season.   As an American consumer, that means being bombarded with these familiar yuletide images:

And over the past decade and a half, none may be more familiar that Coke’s annual Polar Bear parade:
