They will only stop if they hear about it - and yeah, probably not then either. <BR/><BR/>My SIL pushes to be done in October to avoid holiday stress. So she stresses about being done in October. Yay her.<BR/><BR/>Is Christmas really such a big deal that people need months and sandy shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05617376664356510015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4272050448549694245.post-69631345766833057072007-10-03T11:21:00.000-04:002007-10-03T11:21:00.000-04:00I was a bit disturbed to see Christmas items at St...I was a bit disturbed to see Christmas items at Stop & Shop last night. Here I was looking for pumpkin pie ingredients... I had a kind of "bumped in the night" feeling to see all that green/red along with the black/orange.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4272050448549694245.post-5617516085935892722007-10-03T09:08:00.000-04:002007-10-03T09:08:00.000-04:00I saw that at Target a few days ago and I was a li...I saw that at Target a few days ago and I was a little taken back by it! I don't know why I was surprised. When my younger son outgrew his 9 month clothes in Feb., I couldn't find any 12 month winter clothes in the stores. Fortunately, I was able to borrow some from friends which was better anyway.Alex Elliothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08567976812466320977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4272050448549694245.post-1181639600956086562007-10-03T08:10:00.000-04:002007-10-03T08:10:00.000-04:00I hate the buy early crap.

In January. Know what was in there place? Bathing Suits. I hate needed to by essentials like winter coats and stuff and hoping they fit all season.

I like this theory b/c it makes me, who waits until the last minute, feel like I'm late b/c I had to think up the 'perfect' gift for each person before I could shop.Fairly Odd Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11974404093257620566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4272050448549694245.post-88676766838873579992007-10-03T07:19:00.000-04:002007-10-03T07:19:00.000-04:00Every year I say I'm going to get an early jump on...Every year I say I'm going to get an early jump on buying Christmas gifts, but I don't. I guess, for me, too much in-your-face seasonal hullabaloo doesn't work for my purchasing instinct. That being said, I love this holiday season, so I'm looking forward to putting my Christmas decorations up - in December.<BR/><BR/>Jane, Pinks & BluesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
