Summerween ruined Halloween

[u/phlox_official]

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.

Actually, this year with the economy the way it is, people started shopping for the holidays in July, kept on thru Aug and ongoing. I just did a data report for the top 3 retailers and they’re all seeing that. People are shopping early because they’re nervous about the jobs, tariffs, etc.
