Title: Christmas? Already?
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 07/14/17 at 07:05:54

Are you seeing Christmas themed stuff, not THE immediate thrust of the commercial, but inside it, little nudges to be thinking about it?
The only reason I can come up with is retailers are expecting a lousy year.
The herds of idiots trampling each other to get the precious toy are diminishing, I think. I HOPE, anyway..
Discretionary spending is down,because people are not prosperous.
High unemployment takes its toll.

4.5% is "high unemployment"?

Consumer spending grew at five-month high in April

Are you trying to spread fake news or something?

Hmmm... do you dispute the facts I posted?

Am I wrong about consumer spending and the unemployment rate?

Anyone else care to comment?.... Bueller?..... Bueller?.......

Fry?............Fry?............

No not seeing Christmas crap yet.
BayArea I believe has record low unemployment,but Central Valley may differ !
Fuel prices low and lots of new cars otr !
Thousands of cars being off loaded every week in north bay.
Usually start seeing that crap a week before Halloween !

I don't think Jesus has much to do with corporate greed

Jesus? Where? Acknowledging the Reason for Christmas has been made almost a criminal offence.
