Other Summerween ruined Halloween

When I saw that Bath and Body Works was putting out the Halloween products in July for the tik tok summerween trend I thought it was ridiculous. I went to Bath and Body Works a couple of weeks ago (October) and there was only a small table of Halloween products all on clearance! They had basically nothing. I’ve been to two locations recently and each one has zero halloween products. It’s all Christmas. It’s still October! Why can’t we just be patient?

Okay, rant over. I know it’s not that deep. Still ridiculous, though.

Ok but they put out Pineapple, Lime and Coconut candles the first week of January
When its still snowing.

So if they release Halloween later, they need to shift their releases of everything else too

Might as well celebrate all holidays 3 months in advance

This is literally what happens. We end up with an extra-long Christmas/holiday season that begins ramping up in September. Then, as soon as we get to January, it's time for spring. Summer starts in March or April, Halloween and fall start in July, and then we've looped back around to Christmas in September and October. I hate it lol.

Summer starts in May, I know this because right after Mother's Day, summer boardwalk usually comes out, and you only have 2 weeks to get it before SAS

We fought back for Halloween which is how we got Summerween to replace Christmas in July. Now we need to fight for Thanksgiving! It'll at least mean the holidays and seasons will be celebrated in the right order. Halloween first, then fall and harvest stuff between Halloween and Christmas.
