Harvey Nichols, the UK’s upmarket department store, has launched a tongue-in-cheek campaign to inspire customers to spend less on Christmas gifts for others in order to save more money and buy pricy gifts for themselves. The effort taglined “Sorry I Spent It On Myself” is developed by adam&eveDDB—it includes a TV spot and a range of low-cost retail items with a self-indulgent explanation on the packaging.

To support the global (RED) anti-AIDS movement, Coca-Cola has launched a dance-focused campaign, inspiring consumers to dance for health of others. The effort started ahead of World AIDS Day, December 1, #CokeREDMoves, encourages both amateur and professional dancers from across the globe to record the Coke dance performance and send it in—all to generate more donations to help end mother-to-child transmission of HIV by 2015.

Following in the footsteps of Coke Zero’s Sweater Generator fun-packed contest, Budweiser has introduced its own sweater-themed promotion in line with the holiday knitwear season. The beer brand fosters a little revolution in sweaters production, making grannies step aside and give way to contemporary installations, powered with social media. Budweiser’s Twitter-powered knitting machine, Knitbot, creates sweaters fueled with tweeted commitments to not drink&drive.
