Kohones Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I'm all for the Holidays. Christmas, New Years, hell I like them all = 7/4, Labor & Memorial Days, etc etc. But I'm sooo tired of the retailers! I recognize our economy is slow & Xmas is THE retailers savior in dollars & cents. But - do they have to start now?????? It's only Nov 9 (two weeks before Thanksgiving) & already if you go into a store the Christmas decorations & sales set ups have already begun. TV & radio are already starting the ads! It turns me off, before you know it Christmas music will start too. In my humble opinion, this should not begin until AT LEAST the day after Thanksgiving - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I was in an Ikea in Phoenix on OCT 30th and they had all their Christmas stuff out already...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaSSon Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Lowe's had all it's x-mas stuff out by I believe sep 30th. It's rediculous. Black Friday should be the 1st day of the x-mas season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fixerupper Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Well, you have just proved that the retailer's marketing strategy has pulled through. It still ruins the spirit though, that's pretty much been shot since I was real little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supldys Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I dont mind the decorations being up early, I dont really pay attention to it. Its just all the F-ing people that fall for the shit thats get to me. "oh theres a sale I gotta get there!" and so traffic gets backed up for hours because all these people have to go now and I'll im trying to do is get to school/work, nothing different.
