first christmas song in the shops

[leckershell]

There was a thread a while back guessing when the first christmas music would be in shops.

Woolworths in Tamworth have on a Christmas album today and the first song I had the pleasure of hearing was Santa Claus is coming to town.



It's just not right, Christmas is like aaaaaaaages away.

Though to be fair I thought the tacky card shops would be the first with the tacky music, but no, Woolworths.

I'm so ashamed of my town. LOL

December is xmas, no other time!!!!

 

[Sammystar]

I think it's OK to start from about a month before Christmas. I love the build up, it's the best bit!

To my shame i went to Mucky D's on Sat and they had a xmas album playing!!!

They were playing christmas songs in new look a few weeks back but i think it was a random thing.

 

[Kelly G]

next usually start theirs quite early! Drives poor DH mad having to listen to them everyday over and over!

I love christmas but I agree it should be kept in december

I agree!

Don't get me wrong I'm soooo excited as it's Brody's first Christmas but the novelty wears off if it starts too early!

 

[mrs_tommo22]

I agree with budge and jools and keep it in december. If they started it on the first they then have a nice run up to christmas.

Weew only just had bloody guy fawkes, its all money monwy to these places

i spoilt xmas last year by putting my tree up too early, by the time 25th came round i was sick of it! there was no xmas feeling. I thought id try and not think about it this year but theres been no end of xmas adverts on the telly! 1st december should be when there aloud to do stuff like that.

bah humbug

mothercare was playing one yesterday. i was stunned

 

[Tillytots]

each to their own people!

I LOVE xmas I put my tree up this week infact - this has something to do with the fact that by December I doubt I will have tihe enthusiasm so I did it now. I dont get sick of it being up but I get very sad when I have to take it down it just looks so cosy and beautiful!
