[TommyGloves]

I went to Lowes today in Arlington Heights. I walk in and noticed that they have full-blown Christmas stuff out already...trees, decorations, figures, etc. It's not even October yet?!?

My GF works at a Lowe's... they start getting the stuff in August, and it usually goes up in Aug-Sep...

Some places are putting stuff up early do to the fact that they don't have as many employees as they had the previous years do to the recession and unemployment rate and what not. Since they have less employees, it'll take longer to put everything up, therefore starting early to have things ready on time.

lowes is far from understaffed. they arnt hurting for money , trust me. thats the only reason im there right now is im guarenteed this job even tho the market is down, people are still blowing 50k on cabinet setups and flooring.

well with how some people make such a big deal about having outrageous trees and decorations, i could see putting it up early kinda makes sense... still crazy, but still hah

now if they put up 4th of july items in march, that would be a tad more insane

I work at Sears and we've been getting Christmas stuff in since the end of July. I think we actually set up our Christmas display today since almost everyone in my department was working at 5 this morning.

I wanna see someone go balls out with a Nightmare Before Christmas display around their house... and talking thousands of dollars worth of display stuff. That would be sure to piss of the neighbors.

 

[CrawlinTBSS]

there some crazy people for halloween around here. this one house has a ton of windows in the front and they have a bunch of motorized life size horror movie dolls allsetup and crazy lights and shit. its looks really nice.

they figure people have x christmas dollars to spend, so if they sell christmas stuff now, they'll get a greater share of x than their competitors. so they try to beat their competitors by bringing the stuff out early. and each year it seems like they keep doing it earlier and earlier to beat the other guy...

At Jewel we have been getting all of our Christmas shit since like the end of August and it is getting ready to be put out real soon i believe. This holiday gets earlier and earlier each year lol.
