WalMart, Lowe's, HD, Target, KMart, and other big-box retailers have had their Christmas decorations out for sale since before Halloween!!!! Ridiculous. Two of our local radio stations have already started playing Christmas carols, twice an hour they play a "classic" song. Is Feliz Navidad a "classic"? I don't think so. Anyway, I can recall the day when no one--ever--put up any decorations until the day after Thanksgiving--not the stores, not the neighbors, NO ONE!!! It makes me sick that our holidays have become the be-all and end-all for retailers to sell their stuff---Halloween stuff went on sale at the end of July!!!
