Fortyhboobs's blog post - Sheesh, it's only mid-August

Friday, August 18, 2006, 1:28:22 AM

Can't believe it, I got two Christmas catalogs in the mail today. And it's only mid-August! If I'm not mistaken, Christmas is almost FOUR-AND-A-HALF MONTHS AWAY!

Now, don't get me wrong, I love the holidays. But Christmas is just about the last thing I want to think about right now. And I'm sure I'm not the only one. Do the mail-order companies honestly believe people want to start their Christmas shopping during the dog days of August???

Tilac Girl	18-Aug-06 4:40:03 How many shopping days do we have:)

luvs2cummm	18-Aug-06 11:41:42 Ahhhh the catalogs are rolling in. Nothing better than a hot august day to deliver 15 or more Christams catalogs to someone who is cutting their grass in shorts or jsut got back from Back-to-School for the kids. As a mailman, I can't complain, it pays the bills. The flip side is comes January when there is a foot of snow and temps are 10 below we'll be delivering Spring/Summer catalogs. O htose crazy retailers

chargingram	18-Aug-06 13:37:56 I guess I better mail out my Christmas card to you today. Don't want to be late!

flcamfan	18-Aug-06 14:07:34 Please do not start talkig about Chrismtmas already!!! I am still enjoying the summer and the lack of "holiday spending" that goes along with it!

foxilady	19-Aug-06 21:05:30 I swear they deliver the catalogs earlier every year...soon we'll be getting them in January!!!...lol : )

c530	19-Aug-06 22:17:23 yeah they do that here as well . cept they usually have sales on like 2months b4 x-mas .. so ppl can get in and get some cheap and nasty things.. then around x-mas they release all the latest things and it's just a mad rush to get all these things.
