...to be fed up with Christmas already?

[Nanny0gg]

Far too many flaming Christmas adverts and I've just seen the first decorated house around the corner from me.

And it's only the 8th November!

Humbug

YANBU.

I saw Ant n Dec's Morrison's christmas ad earlier and inwardly groaned.

The day the shops start playing Slade's "It's Christmaaaaaaaas" is the day I go into hibernation.

YANBU but i tend to ignore it all till early december I just tut and move on I will not be hyped up in november i refuse

Yanbu and I absolutely love Christmas but when it all starts in November I think it takes part of the thrill away from December because you're already sick of seeing it all . I don't mind it towards the tail end of November but not so early like now.

me too, mrsjay. it's utter madness.

My dad (who is a grumpy old goat and probably has never christmas shopped in his life) loves to head to Buchanan Galleries in Glasgow on Christmas Eve - he gets his coffee and cake in john lewis and sits watches all the frantic last minute shoppers carrying their own bodyweight in bags

barmix your dad does well to just watch all the loons shoppers ,

I agree november is way to early it just drags and becomes a bind if you get into it all, It doesnt help that argos had a bonkers sale the other day and folk were killing each other to get into the shops for toys,

I hate how shops sell gift wrap and decorations in like...august!

YANBU. It's my birthday first. Every year for as long as I can remember, I've spent most of my birthday money on Christmas presents for other people. I would also really hate to work in a supermarket/chain store at this time of year, cheesy xmas songs on a loop would drive me to homicide!

My Mum has rung to say I need to get my Uncle's gift ready as they are seeing him on Tuesday and won't see him again til after Christmas.
I had to go and buy cards and wrapping paper.

Local Chinese restaurant has Christmas tree up and it is 8 th nov ! Makes me want to boycott ! I am planning my Xmas but hate the commercial side until advent ...

YANBU. It's NOVEMBER FFS!!! 1st December is plenty early enough (still far too early for me - but I'm a grinch).

YANBU. It all starts too early. I refuse to 'do' Christmas until I have 'done' the 7 birthdays I have to buy for in November - the last one being on 26th.
What really cheeses me off, is when I am trying to do the normal food shopping, and I am surrounded by Mulled Wine, Pannetone, Christmas cake, freezers full of Turkeys/3 bird roast etc. I just want to buy ordinary everyday food for the next few weeks to feed my family and then in December I can think about stocking up on all the treats that I will consume over the actual Christmas festivities.

I'm not totally fed up with Christmas yet, I'm sure I will be soon.

It is crazy how soon things come into the shops, I was looking at the Easter 2014 display in a shop today...

me too. Spent a lot of time in NZ, it's great there because Xmas doesn't start until early December.

hate the 3 months of sparkly crap we get here. Have to buy food but apart from that, will be avoiding shops as much as possible until January.
