I had a studio one back in July with the heading Plan Ahead. Today there was an Argos one for toys in the TV mag.

I refuse to think about it till after my daughter's b'day in late Oct !

[Georgiesmum]

First one? I have been getting them for ages now. I got another one, Ace, a couple of days ago. too.

The Christmas stuff is out in Tesco, can't say I've bought any of it.

My local Co-op has had mince pies, in nice Christmasy boxes, since August....with a sell by date of mid October. Can anyone even begin to explain what the point is please !

[-Talbot-]

Mince pies are not just for Christmas!

[mikey4444]

I agree but what is the point in marketing these as a Xmas product, when the sell by date is 2 months before 25th December ? And even if they were long-life products, what is the point in selling them in August ? Who buys Xmas food 4 months before you are going to eat it ?

Will we see Easter Eggs on sale in November ?

I'm gathering from your comments that I'm the only one with presents wrapped and ready for the big day then.

[mikey4444]

That is a YES from me douglas !
