Santa Claus Invade the Mall

Here in our province in the Philippines, i haven't seen any Santa Claus yet on any of the malls here. I know, the children are so eager to meet him again this year. I am sure, there eyes are in the lookout for Santa whenever they go to the mall these days. It's nice to see such scene when Santa is surrounded with kids, happily hugging him.

Santa invades your house too! He comes down the chimney, if you don't have a chimney he will squeeze through the mail slot, no mail slot, he'll ease in through the toilet. Either way he's getting into your house because you wrote a letter to him. He comes to the mall cause that's where parents take their kids to go shopping. Get your picture made with him, he's a jolly ole' elf who just wants to drain your bank account.

It always makes me mad when I see anything that has to do with Christmas before we've even had Halloween. They need to stop doing that.

Yep I saw that the two malls near me both have santa there as of yesterday and today. They do fun things the day of santas arrival. One gives away a adorable free plush webkinz reindeer but it was at 10am when both my kids were at school. The other one has fun games and things at 7pm but I didnt feel like driving up for it tonight.

Holidays are so commercialized now days. One should get back to the true meaning of each holiday instead of spending money on things. I'm sure that the first holidays, people didn't spend their money to enjoy the true meaning of the holidays.

it is always the way and Santa claus makes everything in the mood of the festive season. i like them and makes me feel good since the festive season is here. I always go to the mall and shake hands with the santa. hahah yeah like a kid.. what to do the kid in me is still alive.,... Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Seems like the preparation for Christmas starts earlier and earlier. If they continue in this trend, the magic of Christmas will be lost.

I think that it is great that there are people, as well as stores that are trying to get people in the seasonal mood.I bet they all looked great all dressed up.I think that it is also nice for children to see all the exciting things like trees and people dressed up, as this all adds to all the excitement for them.

Hi Shavkat: I havenm't seen a Santa Claus yet but I have seen all the decoration on the malls and I think it's lovely. I love Christmas spirit and the decoration, the gifts and the lights are beautiful. ALVARO

I'm so used to it now, that it doesn't matter. Some people don't even seem to take their Christmas decorations down. It seems they leave their lights up all year. It does seem weird to see Christmas sales so early. Santa Claus in stores though, is too early. Santa is supposed to still be looking for the naughty and nice. He doesn't have time to be in stores yet.

hi, every mall are preparing for the nearly approaching of Christmas that is why many of malls are full of Santa Claus,showing that Christmas is near,and because some malls have sales during the holiday comes,actually not only in the mall but even to the gasoline station.

That is going to happen all over. Santa Claus always makes an appearance in most malls. Now, of course there is not only one. There are many people that play the part of Santa. And the malls want the money that comes from the people who visit Santa.

Yes here in Mexico he will arrive this saturday. As sat. is the day the big mall here puts up their big tall xmas tree. Hope you have a great holiday season there.

Yep, many malls are already putting up the Christmas trees and decorations. I like going to the malls this time of the year just to see all the bright and colorful lights and decorations, as well as listen to the full-blast songs they play! It's totally bringing around the festive mood early

Aside from the figures of Santa Claus, the salesclerks are wearing santa's cap. Christmas is really getting near.
