That said-- I go into a major retail store on the day after Halloween and get greeted by a giant Christmas tree set up on the floor and Bing Crosby crooning "White Christmas" over the sound system. Keep in mind, Thanksgiving is the next major holiday and I didn't see a horn-of-plenty anywhere, let alone, a turkey.
I understand the importance of Christmas to the retail sector, but on November 1 (earlier in some stores), I am not "dreaming of a white Christmas." Neither is the retail sector. They're dreaming of a green Christmas.
Oh, Good Evening!
