Default is christmas arriving to soon ( news debate )

is christmas arriving to soon ( news debate ) 04.11.16
 
shops have a business plan
they are very cunning
always predicting your next self scan
xmas merchandise sales need to be stunning.
putting up the tree
along with lights and tinsel
hinting for a shopping spree
christmas in your head is the stencil.
songs on loud speaker
mince pies being freshly made
did you see that attention seeking streak er
what set him off i blame slade.
all rushing round filling
the meaning of xmas is lost
2016 xmas tale is chilling
its solely about cost.
buy more and more food
the ones that leave fat and stodge
a very wasteful period i conclude
pass me that whisky i got a mince pie lodge.
in control of this balloon
christmas must only start in december
lets put a end to it starting to soon
us consumers have feet the shops must remember.

( hi everyone - I can not remember what news channel this was on this morning but it really got me thinking ? I no shops have to be ahead of the game but I just wonder is it getting earlier and earlier every year and do we need to take back control or am I a bar hum bug and should remain silent ?)







this is my way to get us all into Christmas spirit = never to early for the best ever Christmas song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V5mtUff6ik

I don't mind it, put one or two extra items in the trolley each week and you don't have that huge bill on Christmas Eve

This really.

I prefer to spend a couple of weekends during October/November Christmas shopping then theres no big rush nearer the time.

I also enjoy seeing all the decorations and stuff in the store, I could look through them all for hours
