It’s almost that time of year, again. Most of us at OpRainfall have already gone to visit our family and friends for the holidays. But that won’t stop the Operation Rainfall Retro Commercial Research Team (in other words, me) from providing you with some fun commercial enjoyment with your recap this weekend. So with that in mind, here are some fun Christmas Decemberween themed commercials for you just in time for the holidays in this week’s Retro Wrap-Up.
