I saw a sign at the local grocery store that said “Happy Hallow-Thank-Mas Season!” I was physically ill.

I agree unless you are an avid maker. It tends to take 1 month to make something holiday appropriate and you need to get supplies for it so a craft store carrying things two months ahead of a holiday isn’t that bad. But yea simple yard decorations and music can wait till their season .

In Canada, we’d need a FOURTH lane for labor day in September. In September we see Halloween stuff in stores.

One the bright side, most DGAF about Thanksgiving so no merch in stores in September… so far.

sorry i can’t hear you over mariah Carey rn

As a Canadian who ate 🦃 tonight, November??!!

Christmas is extremely profitable, so corporations want to extend it as much as possible. In the UK, shops sell christmas stuff in august now. It’s ridiculous. Also, everything has to have festive packaging, even products that have nothing to do with christmas.
