Out here the Halloween stuff and the Christmas stuff were all in the same aisle. You could get a Santa outfit for Halloween! ;P
One of our local writers joked that he ran out of candy on Halloween night, and ran to the store to get more, but they had already gotten rid of all the halloween stuff, and all they had was Christmas stuff....so the Trick-or-Treaters all got Candy Canes.
I dunno who is buying all this crap. I'm not. Maybe the stores are just trying to PUSH the goods on people knowing a few weak minds are going to cave in here or there and they can make an extra buck off 'em.
I personally don't think the Christmas stuff should come out until the day AFTER Thanksgiving.
