Unless I've been told wrong (it's happened), but I'm pretty sure Christmas is December 25 every year. If so, why the heck are people so surprised when it's here? And why do they get so upset when they shop at the last minute and discover that what they wanted is sold out?
For example: Window Clings!
I'm sure everybody (or most people) know that Christmas merchandise is out in the stores. Smart people get their stuff early...decorations and cards at least. A woman comes into my store this past week and had a fit because we only had one design of window clings, no partyware, and only 3 boxes of cards left. "Don't you KNOW that it's only a WEEK until Christmas?" Uh yeah, that's why we're sold out.
