Yes, we were in Target and Walgreen's the day after Halloween and Christmas stuff was going out. Of course, the Hallmark stores have had Christmas stuff out since late summer. That's when the annual ornaments come out.
I've also started seeing the Christmas commercials on TV and the stores are playing Christmas songs on the PA system.
The one good thing is that the sales that typically don't happen until later in the year are starting now, too, so if you are in the market for any big ticket item like a TV, computer, etc., now would be a good time to start looking.
