It’s Christmas In August With Retailers Getting An Early Jump Start On The Holidays

Is that Christmas music I am hearing or just the ring a-ling of the cash registers?

Schools barely kick started and retailers are already sprinkling their holiday dust on us.

There are 120 plus shopping days left before Christmas and stores are breaking out with their holiday offers.

Stores like Toys R Us made an announcement this week that it would extend its price matching guarantee to include on-line retail giants like, Walmart, Amazon, Best Buy and Target. Walmart is even foregoing their $5 fee for opening layaway accounts and shoppers can begin putting their presents on layaway beginning September 13^th and two days earlier if you are a Facebook fan.

I’m sorry, I’m no Scrooge but August is just way too early to start thinking about Christmas, I’m still tackling spring cleaning!
