yess christmas is not what it used to be..it is more of a commercial holiday meant for retail stores across the nation to boost their profits

I think any time after the 1st December is fine. November is too early!\n\nMind you all the shops have been decorated for Christmas since Novermber the 1st. So no wonder people start early.

YES!  I think it is awful. Black Friday is so much hype!  Most of those sales will be run again and again until Christmas.  Also, the busiest shopping day of the year is actually December 20!  I think it is sad but I guess if someone prefers to stand in line that is their choice.

Yes i am! As soon as I see the first holiday ad in the newspapers, i know christmas is here! So its become a crass, commercialised holiday that everyone exploits, but you gotta love it. It's the most wonderful time of the year!

OMG!  The mall was packed when I drove by, not a parking spot left in sight!\n\nMy guess is that retailers are pushing it more and more....\n\nHeck-Walmart had their holiday stuff out since end of August! I hate going to the garden center during 80 degree weather and seeing christmas trees and snow shovels! ;o

It does seem like just a few months ago that it was last Christmas.  This year does seem to have flown by.  May God Bless

I am in retail and I also for the first time went to a black friday last year. We got up at 5 got to the store at 6 the line was across the street. Look if you wanna get there early get there at 2-3 am I know it sounds stupid but believe me you will see people there especially if they have door busters. good luck I work tomorrow at 5am because we open at 6. \n\n\nhope its worth it..

Really wont make a difference. Time is precious. People ready to start Christmas/holiday shopping will do it on their own time table.\n\nI know what I'll be doing this Friday...avoiding crowded stores and shopping online.
