  1. Maybe they are being sneaky and it’s stock left over from last year. But you are right way too early.

  2. I hate how promoting holidays gets earlier every year. Sometimes I miss the old day when the wonder of the Christmas season happened in December! Diana

  3. They start all of the holiday marketing sooner than they should. Here in the US, they had Halloween decorations on the shelves in the last week of July. A week or two ago, I noticed Christmas decorations appearing in the stores.

  7. Isn't it interesting how Christmas in July spread to today? Well that used to be the target for those who wanted to hide Christmas presents that were purchased early. And many of those hidden presents were lost when the 6 months passed too!

  14. Obwohl es die Weihnachtsartikel immer früher in den Geschäften gibt, wurden offenbar schon einige Weihnachtsmänner verkauft.
