   People, the rules are simple:

   No Halloween merchandising until October

   No Thanksgiving merchandising until after Halloween

   No Christmas merchandising until after Thanksgiving

   like it says in danged bible.

     I will not be taking questions on my scriptural interpretation methods at this time.

     I grant a LITTLE concession to arts and crafts stores. It can take a lot of time to make decorations yourself, so you gotta start early in the year.

     The makers and ren-festivants fear no wrathful deity.

     The retailers, however, better watch their window displays, lest divine wrath descend upon them and depress their quarterly earnings.

     I will grant this for enthusiastic individuals, but not corporations. Stay inside the lines, marketers!

     @inthehands My only disagreement is that Halloween season can start on the first day of fall.

     @Rainne @inthehands Thank goodness Halloween is holding the line or October too would be overcome.

     @inthehands I would suggest avoiding Germany during those times then as Halloween barely exists here and Thanksgiving certainly doesn’t…

     …which means you will start to see Christmas items in stores at the beginning of September or even sometimes at the end of August (photo taken September 8th, 2023).

     @inthehands I’m mostly with you, but I have it on good authority that every day is Halloween. https://youtu.be/mXtKicX5eDo?si=37qx1FO6Cf-Wg6Nw

     @mpirnat
     This is correct. These rules only apply to marketing. Individuals can and should wear outlandish costumes and/or be spooky at any time.
