"ALL SHE WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU"

We have an annual contest to see who spots the first Xmas display. So far, the earliest has been mid-September.

Toss-up between, Costco, ACE Hardware, and Daiso.

Halloween stuff in back. Bets on this being a picture from fall’s past, and not summer 2024?

Nor even Halloween can contain Chrisman anymore.

My GF, who likes to make a lot of handmade gifts, says she understands craft stores like Hobby Lobby (which this is) putting put stuff out early, since other crafters are probably starting their projects around this time and might need a few months to get them ready.

But this shit better not cross over into regular retail stores.

"Only 191 days until Christmas" means it wasn't christmas!

In-character misdirection from the Grinch.

There is nothing on that seasonal display barge worth 150 dollary-doos. Or is there? What year is it and what's the inflation rate?

I'm also mildly concerned about the handcuffs in the top-shelf plastic bin.

No way

Light it on fire and call it a Yule log.

Sometimes I wonder if even Mariah carry is sick of all I want for Christmas is you playing on loop at every store everywhere

I honestly didn't mind when stores sell Christmas stuff early. Some people like to plan things out. What bugs me is when they put up their own decorations early or start playing Christmas music.

This looks like the discount and out of season pile at the back of the store. Note the Halloween decorations in the background.

Wow these Q4 festivities start earlier and earlier

It was probably taking up valuable warehouse space.
