Sam’s Club kicked off the holiday season the right way with its Merry-Ville Pop-Up, featuring a variety of family-friendly winter activities. From ice skating performances to photo-ops with Mr. Claus, members of the Santa Clarita community dove right into the spirit of the season. Speaking of diving, our Giant Human Claw Machine made a special appearance, prompting community members to plunge into a pit of tempting presents. From stuffed animals to inflatable candy canes to mystery boxes and beyond, community members attempted to grab some merry as they were lowered down into a jolly abyss. Sam’s Club took its brand activation one step further with a fully customized façade, creating the illusion that the pit was one giant present. See the activation in action.
