No, you wont see that, but only because the shops aren't open Christmas Day! That said, I did go into Tesco on Boxing Day last year and they had already put the Cadbury Cream Eggs and Mini Eggs out on the ends of all the aisles! yes

Have you noticed that many shops actually take down their Christmas displays before Christmas has even started because they usually have to get the sales ready for Boxing Day (if not sooner)?

Not really as if you were going out for a meal you would just support another local business--anyway there was a touch of sarcasm in the post.

Well, it`s got worse, I saw a toilet roll with Xmas on it. Hands up all those who wish to complain and ban them!. These toilet roll makers should all be banned and we could go back to using the Echo paper cut up into squares and hung up with wool in the loo.

The wool came from our cardigans which we got from the jumble sales. I just remembered, the buttons were always on the wrong side on the cardies.
