I was in Hobby Lobby two weeks ago and they were putting out fall stuff; yesterday they have out 6 aisles of Christmas stuff! Ginger must have told them about Christmas in July LOL!
How exciting....we do not have HL here in Australia, but I am really hoping to visit one when I am in the US later this year. I will have to see if I have enough time, and room in my suitcase.
wouldn't it be great if some of the stores did sell Christmas stock all year round? I know myself that I see a project that I want to try and can't find the supplies for it. I would love to be able to walk into a store and buy what I like.
I'm pretty sure that HobLob will have all the Christmas stuff out by July. AND I'm pretty sure we will hear grumblings from the Scrooges of this world. What is WRONG with those people!?!?
I was just thinking today that HL should be putting their stuff out pretty soon. I need to take a trip over to the next town to ck it out. I've been kinda bummed today, maybe I will be able to go tomorrow
I am new to the boards and would like to say hello before I reply. Hello!
I was in Old Time Pottery over Memorial Day weekend. It looks like they are already catching on to having merchandise year round. They had two or three isles dedicated to Christmas. I did some 'Christmas in May' shopping.
I am so wanting to run out to Hobby Lobby and take a look around! I drove by today while running errands and was very tempted to stop! But I was out of time - had done some shopping for Father's Day and had to get back to work!
I am also curious to stop into The Christmas Tree store that opened last year and see what they have right now too!
Its funny, but when it really starts getting hot - I start to get excited for Christmas - weird, huh?
I guess I have spent too many summers ducking in and out of stores carrying Christmas merchandise! lol
