MANILA, Philippines – Webhits brings you a whallop of a compilation- four lovable Christmas ads that let you get past the commercialism and into the real meaning of Christmas.

“Young Santa,” an ad from UK pharmacy and beauty retailer Boots features a taciturn young man headed for the door on a snowy night. He turns out to be a hoodie-wearing santa handing out gifts to people who helped him during the year.

“Container Ship” from the makers of gadget Google Nexus 7 will strike a chord with many Filipinos. The Philippines has an estimated 2.22 million workers abroad, many of them employed on ships. The ad shows how technology can bring families together, even if Dad is on a ship in the middle of the ocean.

“Alice in Oz” from clothing store Marks and Spencer shows Alice (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley) falling down a manhole in a modern-day city street. The M&S YouTube account describes what she finds as a magical world full of “decadent lingerie, glamorous make-up and glittering accessories.” She is whisked away by a flying carpet with gorgeous Aladin (David Gandy) and ends up in Oz with a witch (Helena Bonham Carter) admiring her red shoes.

“The Bear and the Hare,” from UK department store John Lewis is a charming animation straight from a children’s storybook. Hare give his best friend Bear a Christmas gift he’ll never forget. John Lewis YouTube account says, “Set in a beautiful forest, poor Bear is the only animal that never gets to celebrate Christmas because he has to hibernate every year.”

Watch and enjoy.
