<p>Okay now this is too much. Sears is opening up their christmas shops now!

<p>BP, I really hope Costco will hold off with their Chirstmas in July thing. It is depressing enough to see Halloween decor on sale in August :(</p>
<p>Oh good…just one more reason that I will NEVER step inside a Sears. I have one that is just two miles from my house and I have not gone in there for over fifteen years.</p>
<p>I guess this means it’s too late to shop for sandals and shorts…and a new bathing suit for this summer. OH I know…I’ll do that in December.</p>
<p>Yep, by now you should be see winter coats on sale for 50% off!</p>
<p>I can only admit this anonymously - I was so busy with college stuff with my sr this year, I did not take down LAST year’s Christmas decor until right before Vanlintines Day, and then all I did was move it to an empty bedroom. FINALLY packed it away correctly very recently. The bet with my D was - if it is not in the attic by March 1, I owe her ‘second Christmas.’ I plan to pay off the bet soon!</p>
<p>I wonder if they really believe with the economy in the tanks and unemployment rising that people will buy xmas decorations now in fear that in Nov they won’t afford it. Or are they doing it because they have no room in their warehouse to store it since nobody is buying their reg merchandise!</p>
