I know Christmas season starts in the Philippines very early. But I was surprised to see this mall decorating and filling the racks with Christmas decorations in the middle of August.
They are way beyond early than other malls. Usually malls have those at September first.

Stores here do that, too. That's the reason I hate holidays. They burn me out on holidays way before the holidays even get here.

@DaddyEvil Since I am retired and no kids left at home. I fix whatever i want for a Holiday meal. If one of the kids are coming I fix whatever they want.

@jstory07 I worked at Walmart for 14 years and was always happy when the holidays were over. I've been away from a retail job for 4 years now and am still not interested in the holiday decorating or gift buying... We still cook Thanksgiving meals and Christmas meals but that's as far as I'm willing to go right now.

That's crazy isn't it? I bopped into a store yesterday to get a birthday card, and they were selling Christmas stuff leftover from last year I am sure for 50 percent off.

Christmas starts in November here. But would you believe that many stores do not take down their Christmas decorations until April? Hehehe. I guess they are just too lazy to take them down.
