It is alsmot halloween. I bet they aren't making as much money off of the costumes. I have noticed that as they sell out of Halloween they put more christmas and winter decorations out.

There's no thanksgiving here so that's not a problem, the only issue is they're out right after Haloween, crazy or what!

I just don't think that many people decorate for thanksgiving. Maybe a pumpkin or a special wreath but those are relatively easy to come by. There's just not enough profit in it for the stores.... where as Christmas is incredibly profitable.

It counts, but it's not exactly a huge decorating day. I agree with you, though, that the Christmas stuff comes out earlier every year. I heard someone say the other day that at this rate, "Christmas in July" will be more than just a saying before you know it.

I belive it is because of profit. but at the same time you waite until closer to christmas to shop thing are moe picked over. Those popular item become more scarce. They want you in the mood early too so you spend more money. It just puts me off.

depends on where you are i guess, in canada our thanksgiving is over by the time halloween rolls around so we start putting our christmas decortations out soon after that, but im not sure why in the states they would skip right over thanksgiving, mayby too many holidays to close together people get sick of putting up and taking down different decorations
