Bro I've seen/heard MULTIPLE Christmas ads already
I even saw a Christmas stand in a store
Who is buying Christmas stuff in OCTOBER?
Shit sells best in November. The earlier they sell it, the more money they may make.
Supermarkets here in Germany are already full on Christmas sweeties.

Is this a cultural thing I'm not understanding?
No. It’s an idiot thing you’re rightfully rejecting.
Oh lol
We start cristmas on the first of September here in Germany. And you will pry my Gewürzspekulatius out of my cold dead hands.
At least share one with me...
Also they don't play the christmas music, its just as soon as it starts getting colder they go from grill mode into christmas mode. Where instead of grill stuff you can buy christmas stuff and fondue. Also we don't really have Thanksgiving and a lot of people aren't into fall stuff like pumpkins, so for seasonal stuff they go straight to Christmas.
like yin and yang, but grills and christmas decorations
Walmart went full in on their Christmas section like two+ weeks ago.
of course they did why wouldn't they
eventually they're gonna reach the point of never getting rid of their Christmas section
Same with Lowe’s. You can’t even get Halloween shit now, even though it’s several weeks away. I went into Kohl’s on Tuesday and it was all Christmas music playing.
Must not be in the USA
