November 1st, the Christmas commercials started, and just recently, Leon's (a rather large furniture store chain around here) started showing their annoying 15 year old Christmas commercials. |

So, it shouldn't be surprising that stuff is available early so you don't have to spend a fortune all in December. Thanksgiving sells food, but its not a big "decorate your house" holiday.
Plus, every year there seems to be a thread like this. Stores have been doing this for decades, so, no reason to be surprised again. |

I'm probably going to break down and start listening to Christmas music within another week or so. Thanks SmokescreenGT for making this sig! The TC and Wildfrost Story Latest Acquisitions: ROTF Jolt, ROTF Stalker Scorponok, Bionicles Stronius, Bionicles Skrall |
