    Re: Halloween merch in Sainsburys

    I wonder why the halloween stuff goes on sale so early. Christmas stuff, too. I guess one theory is that by having stuff out early, they can advertise their wares to customers for when they do decide to go halloween shopping. On the other hand, I guess it could just be that there's enough people buying stuff early that it's worth the shelf space, supply & demand etc. If it is that, then if anyone here sees anyone buying cheap mass-produced halloween tat early, would you do me a favour and punch them in the face? Ta.

    Heard a Xmas jingle on radio today. Bloody annoys me. Should make it illegal to advertise Xmas stuff before December!

    Pretty much a game of pack the most stock out into any shop floor space available.

    I don't think I'd want to eat anything that glows in the dark.
