Welcome to the end of August. That means it's time for the Christmas merchandising ;)

I am hearing from trucker friends that they are already starting delivering Christmas stuff, and supposedly, Hobby Lobby already has stuff on display. I have to run to Walmart tomorrow, already not a good time, and I dread that I am going to find their Christmas stuff out already.

I would not even be surprised if they did have Christmas decor out already 🤣 You'll have to come back and give us an update cause I avoid that place at all costs. I really wish we could give Halloween the spotlight and then immediately after, BAM, Christmas. Halloween deserves its moment, too.

Halloween and Thanksgiving. Christmas shouldn't start until Black Friday. I didn't notice anything at Walmart the other night, but I was in and out, and just grabbed some groceries I can't find anywhere else. I avoided the side that would have had Christmas stuff. But I will have to go get Halloween candy, so will check out that side next time I am unable to avoid that place.

I can't believe we're already at that point in the year. It feels like just yesterday our store was decked out in all things red and pink for Valentine's Day 🤣. I'm sure we'll start getting Christmas deliveries soon, but we don't start putting anything out until like halfway through October.

I'm still wondering if the trade war chaos is going to create real problems for Christmas. I've heard all kinds of stories from empty shelves to no changes at all. I guess we'll have to wait and see, and I wouldn't mind waiting. It's always kind of depressing seeing holiday merch out way ahead of time.

I am concerned about that. Even though we laugh about how early it starts, there are companies that start planning for Christmas at the end of the previous December. And with shipping lines all messed up, and everything else, I fear this could be worse than Christmas 2020

! It’s wild seeing Christmas stuff pop up before September even hits.

And yet, it seems to get earlier every year.

Back when I was getting started in the food world, I worked flipping burgers at In-n-Out. A man came in and said the burgers he had gotten weren’t right. He dumped the food on the counter and then he started throwing them back behind the counter. We gave him a refund and then his demeanor completely changed. He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.
