I have just been in my local newsagents and saw a pack of Advent Calendars on sale. It's August 22!! AAAAAARGH!!!!

Yup. That's why it's kinda galling to see Christmas stuff going up right before Halloween.

When you work retail, the holidays just aren't as enjoyable as they used to be.

I agree, although that may have something to do with the same CD of Christmas tunes being played permanently on loop for six weeks. I am sure I lost my mind at this time.

What galls me is seeing all the Christmas stuff before my birthday (November 20). Last year was the first good Christmas I have had, they are always associated with pain for me, so having it rammed down my throat doesn't help. The commercialism has also gone too wild imo.
