    They start stocking the shelves with Christmas crap a week before Halloween now

    You have to buy and prepare your Halloween gear by the first week of October and buy all your candy two weeks before Halloween because there will be little to no Halloween stuff by Halloween … and anything you can buy the week before Halloween will either be no good or way overpriced and in that week before Halloween, you have to search for the Halloween stuff among all the Christmas stuff they started displaying.

        There were decorations for sale at Costco in California in late August. Decorative gourd season decorations hadn’t even shown up yet.
