I’ll be honest, I haven’t been out shopping in a while.  Which is odd.  Usually my wife Amy has me run out for something here and there.  All this to say that while I can’t confirm it with my own eyes, the rumor is that Halloween decorations are out already, which means the Christmas decorations should be on shelves in around 2 weeks right?  In all seriousness, it seems more ridiculous to me every year how early all the holiday decorations go on sale.  The holidays don’t seem as fun if the decorations have been up for 4 months.  What do you think?  If it was up to you, when would holiday items go on sale?
