Seen in my local supermarket in a small display of other xmas stuff.
Thing is, by doing this they get free ads.
You saw it, you posted it here, 50 or more people saw it, someone will probably repost it further. The earlier they do it, especially if they're the first ones to do so, the more likely it is that someone will post a picture on social media, or tell their friends.
If you want it to stop, make doing it not profitable, just ignore it.
No problem, just wait a couple of years and it will line up correctly again. So that last Xmas ~~I gave you my heart~~ you will have been eating the chocolate from present Xmas and present Xmas you eat the chocolate of future Xmas. Let me know if you have any questions.
On the one hundred and thirty-nineth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...
Anyone caught selling Christmas stuff before Halloween should be hung in a gibbet as a Halloween decoration.
For me, anything Christmasy before December results in a firm tut or two.
Traditionally, Advent could start on the last few days of November, so I think we should be lenient.
There’s been some Halloween bits appearing round here but nothing Christmas…yet.
One of the supermarkets did have a big “back to school” display before August had even started.
When I was younger I hated the "back to school" displays. Especially when you saw it in like the second week of your summer holiday, lol.
Is it fresh or 2025 vintage? I mean my local lidl was offloading the last christmas stuff in june
I don't really care about premature selling of Christmas stuff, some people do like to get ahead and I get it. However Christmas decoration prematurely is a big no
That's just taking the piss. For me it only reinforces the will to buy less and less of this shit.
Poor Halloween. Always gets marginalised by Spendmas.
It's time to begin a war on Christmas.

Good thing Halloween never gets commercialised, eh?
In the US, typically the earlier you see Christmas on sale is an indicator of how poorly sellers predict the economy will be doing between now and Christmas.
