Has the build up to Christmas started too early this year

Lilym

I was walking down Grafton Street last week and they were turning on the lights. It hadn't even reached mid -November !!

Opinions please ??

Nevyn

yes

Lucy Lu

I heard on the radio they were turning on the lights early this year as they want to encourage people to stay in Dublin and shop and not head to the States!! (has not worked for me:D)

I am not too sure if the Brothers will care though, they will be sending the wimmins out to do the shopping

Taco Corp

It's always too early

ChewChew

Bit of a serious thread for BGRH. Unless of course you mean the build up to the Christmas food and drink extravaganza, in which case you're a bit late. Every well prepared Brother will have started his build up in April.

Technically that starts as soon as the turkey is hatched....

I think this year everyone in Retail is ****ting it because of the recession that they're pulling out all the stops in an effort to get yer money. It will certainly be a modest Christmas in our house - "ohhhh! another pair of socks! sound out!"

Meh, I love Christmas so its not too early for me, although like Lucy it's not stopping going up North. The difference in prices is nuts.

Sorry! I appear to have walked into the Ladies Lounge by mistake

Oooh, and I heard that Arnotts are doing a half-price sale on Elizabeth Arden until December 1st.
