Gift shop goodies

The retail store's excuse is that they need to make their profits.
Why does a simple gift shop inside a hospital need to decorate so
early??

At least they had one tiny shelf of Thanksgiving things.

Happy Halloween!

Hopefully your Halloween was safe and fun and you were able to find
costumes and decorations hidden behind all the Christmas displays at
the stores!

Watch out for Christmas lights as you're trick or treating!

And now on to the forgotten holiday...

Thanksgiving!!!

The Grinch

When December starts, there is no shortage of animated and hallmark holiday films to fill up your DVR.

With that said, there is no reason that TBS should be showing "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" this year on November 5th!

Maybe they need to go back and watch the movie again, to learn that Christmas isn't about bloated consumerism.

Nordstrom's Safe Haven

If you want to go shopping this season, but you don't want to be bombarded by the Christmas Creep, take your credit card over to Nordstroms for your pre-Thanksgiving shopping.
Nordstrom's department stores won't be rolling out the holiday decorations and fanfare until the day after Thanksgiving. It's a low-key policy they've carried out for as long as company spokesman, Colin Johnson, can remember. "It’s our longstanding tradition that we wait until the day after Thanksgiving to unveil the holiday trim at all of our stores," Johnson told Yahoo! Shine. "We think it’s important to celebrate each holiday on its own so we’re doing it again this year. "
