Its only the second week of november, and already they are playing the holiday commercials and ads, and putting up displays. i swear it starts earlier and earlier every year. we went to do a leaf cleanup the day after halloween, and the neighbor of this house took down his halloween blow up dolls in the front yard, and replaced them with a big snowman and santa. that is just obsurd. i dont hate the holidays by anymeans, but i swear they start earlier every year.:rolleyes:

The local Wally World started their Christmas display BEFORE Halloween- almost a full 3 weeks before!!!! I know I am anxious for snow, but that's a little ridiculous if you ask me!!

We leave ours up all year just because it's a real pain to get them out of the box and untangled every year.

OK I am sure you haveall heard of that Charitable Organization called Christmas in April.
I think the retailers are trying to emulate that Idea. They start selling Christmas stuff earlier and earlier...
Why wait until the last minute, start shopping at all the other Holiday sales throughout the year...
I mean aren't we guilty of the same thing... when do we start sending out our snow removal contracts
:grinz July?
Cant blame the retailers from trying to take advantage of these little blips of economic upturn, the rest of the year has been terrible.
