Holiday season arrives early at stores
I'm hoping for a mild backlash, to the point that they hide this stuff away for another three months.
I am also curious as to why the Christmas tree farms are expecting a banner year -- at least they're not putting stuff out early -- when there are several million fewer employed people now than there were last holiday season. Fewer people employed, more people uncertain about their future -- wouldn't that lead to less spending?
