Having worked retail for the last 10 years or so at least, I can say that retailer heads always have christmas on their mind, no matter what time of the year. This is their big season, trying to get you to buy early bird presents earlier and earlier so you don't have to worry about it later, and then catering to the people who actually do buy in the month of december. It's all about strategy really.

This happens every year. I don't see why anyone would be shocked about this. This must be a coming of age thing when you first realize that the holidays equals commercialism.

Canada definitely has Thanksgiving at a better time. Down here, it seems to get drowned out in the Black Friday/Christmas hype. Plus, Canada has a longer break between holidays that involve eating turkey.

Seriously, this thread title made me immediately think "a transformer with an alt mode and a xmas mode". I refuse to finish that line of thought, someone else feel free...


It just feels like xmas time gets earlier and earlier every year. Do they really bring out the eggnog ONLY during this time of year? Terrible, but I never cared enough to notice.

Hardly anyone cares about Halloween anymore.

Good. I haven't read any comics or opened any figures I've bought since August, saving up for the big winter break.
