I am loathe to go to Costco as I fear they will have their christmas decorations etc. on sale already.
Make the madness stop!
It drives me nuts that the seasons don't get time to just pass. By the beginning of July stores were clearing out their Summer stock to prepare for Fall. We've not passed labour day and Christmas is being shoved in our faces.
I need to find some blinders.

In England, a blinder is a drinking session (which could be relevant, given it's nearly Christmas)... are you sure you don't need blinkers?
Blinders, blinkers or just a big eye mask :)
I could try a big drinking session though.
I'm definitly in need of getting blind after seeing that pic of The Hoff!!!
There are two shops, at least, that I know of, in Edinburgh, where one can buy Christmas goodies all year round.
I was in Michael's the other day, and they have all the Halloween and Christmas stuff out...I can see the Halloween as people might need supplies for crafty things to be available a bit early, but Christmas? Come on, we are not even out of August yet. This is why time flies for adults...all the stupid marketing.
Minge: The year round shops I can handle. I become immune to them. It is the regular stores that carry a variety of things that send me nutty.
Mishka: The craft stores need the stuff for sure but, yes, they should hold back on the Christmas crap.
The marketers need their heads knocked.
Not to mention- it makes the story look very confusing (at least to me) when they have Halloween and Christmas out together (although, here they combine Halloween and Thanksgiving which is still a long way off but at least it all sort of blends together)
