Default Full Christmas decorations: Sept 20th

Is this a new record? Our local mall is completely decked out in Christmas decorations. Macy's too! September 20th. Ridiculous.

Ridiculous.... I saw halloween in July, and i also have started seeing christmas stuff as of a couple days ago. Why? I never want to deal with a holiday for at most a month before-hand.... at the rate they're going, we'll start seeing their preparations for next year's christmas right after New Year's.

I don't mind seeing the Christmas decos so soon it helps with the planning I think. Although this year it's a bit depressing.
