I noticed the Halloween stuff out and thought it was a little early for that! By the time I get around to xmas decorating the good stuff is gone and I am left with the picked over stuff nobody wants. But I refuse to shop for christmas when it's 100F outside!! 4951
It'd be okay at Target too. With only a cpl registers open and a bathroom decision jamming the facilities it could be Christmas by the time you get out of the store. 4951

@Maisey1: Good point. Just think of all the vendors at the Nutcracker Market and various Fall and holiday craft shows. They have to prep months in advance to be ready to sell items in the Fall. 4951
UGG! Â Last year I didn't see this stuff till August. Â It is just too early and it does not make me happy to see it. Â It does not make me happy to see that Christmas is coming. Â I think it makes people dread Christmas. Â It makes me way too aware of the pending deadline. Â 4951
The worse the economy is or is perceived to be by retailers, the earlier they will start Christmas sales. At this rate, it won't be too long until there is a year-round Christmas section in most stores. 4951
I'm sorry but that is just wrong, crafter's or not.... Â Used to be nothing was out before Labor Day, then 4th of July and now before the 4th of July... Â WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!! 4951
To stores like this....... BAH, HUMBUG!!! Â I don't want to even think about Christmas until after Thanksgiving and it's become so commercialized, I don't like Christmas as much as I used to. 4951
