Xmas Products in Debenhams already!

[Colin James]

I cannot believe will over 4 months to go until Christmas they have got Xmas cards, gifts and wrapping paper out on sale in Debenhams already! The kids are still on their school summer holidays!

 

Unreal...

We received , through the post the Barnardo's Christmas 2016 Christmas Card brochure yesterday , so it appears that round about the end of August / early September the Christmas stuff must / should be on the Shop floor or in the post .

If no one bought anything Christmassy until November, they might begin to get the message.

I will not buy a single Xmas product or present until after the 1st week of December, it is ridiculous.

May I be the first to wish you all a happy Easter!

An unfortunate sign of these consumer driven times that we live in - maximise the exposure to maximise the profit and the sales

I know when it's near Christmas time, the knocks on the door saying "Trick or Treat" and the Mother-in-Law showing off on her Broomstick.

This is crackers!!   Still 4 months until Xmas and this stuff is in the shops already, I guess I will be avoiding Debenhams for a while then as this type of thing does my head in.

If you look at the rate at which these items creep into being on sale earlier and earlier each year, I calculate that by 2025 they will be on sale all year round!!!!

I was asked last week if I still want to be Father Christmas at our local school in December . I have done it for the last 8 years .

They must have been Armed Forces trained -

Of course I accepted their request.
