Archived Tis the Season "Happy Hallothanksmas"

[qmosqueen]

Hallothanksmas
Hallothanksmas is an event running from early October to New Years Eve. Due to peoples obsessive need to start the holidays earlier and earlier, the Three holidays of Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas have merged into one huge morass of shopping.


So have you already done youre Hallothanksmas shopping?

Hey Target….can I at least finish trick or treating before I get bombarded with Christmas?

When it comes past Thanksgiving, it becomes Christmahannukwanza

Welcome, newcomers. The tradition of Festivus begins with the airing of grievances. I got a lot of problems with you people! And now you're gonna hear about it!

At this rate happy hour at bars will be 4pm, then 3pm, then 2pm. Finally we will be drinking at 6 am for the work day and holidays.

Hobby Lobby had their Thanksgiving stuff up after Valentine's Day. It's ridiculous.

I already drink at 5am because I have to be at work by 6

Did we have Christmas lights out this early last year? I was expecting the wreaths such in the first rear seasonal aisle, but the Christmas lights caught me by surprise (especially because I shipped off a bunch for SFS orders today).

Yeah I was a little confused that we had Christmas decorations up just a few days after we put up the Halloween stuff.
I don't see anything for Thanksgiving though, odd.

Do not want...

We usually don't have much in the way of Thanksgiving decorations. Maybe a couple endcaps and a One Spot set. Thanksgiving is mainly food.

Where I live, Christmahanukkwanzivus starts at the first snowfall unless it snows before Halloween.

On a related note, at least at my store, seasonal is a lot more organized and less messy than last year which makes me happy.

I have no doubt, but I think the overall setup is better this year.

I noticed that, too. It seems less cluttered and better sorted.

They do that so people who make seasonal crafts to sell have plenty of time to do so.

They're already putting Christmas signage and "top gift" markers in toys...

Same thing happened last year. We had a section of Christmas stuff

 

[Retail Girl]

I had my first return of Christmas lights (yes from this year) earlier this week. The holiday season is officially upon us!

$10 off Halloween shop if you buy $40 or more. I can see it now, guests complaining "I bought $40 of candy, why didn't I get $10 off? I'd like to speak with a manager" (coupon excludes candy)

 

[qmosqueen]

It doesn't matter what the coupon "excludes." You will VIBE with our guests and make an exception for them.
