Christmas is coming

[Greeny]

In my local co-op, a variety of Santa based sweets and chocolates.

[dougc]

Made out of Santa?

Nice.

[Goochie]

Must be a co-op thing........... ours has a reasonably large selection of advent calendars already.

[Greeny]

They probably taste like they are.
(That is not an admission that I believe in Santa)

But it is an admission that you know what he tastes like ?

[Puggit]

Wake up - our Co-op has had these on display for at least 2 weeks!

BTW - The Co-op group fund the Labour party...

I've decided on what im going to buy the other half already. Ofcourse being a man I will purchase said gifts 2 days before Christmas day.

[andy ted]

not just the co-op

M&S and tescos both have mince pies - both with November use by dates as well!

One died of natural casues (the natural cause being I forgot to feed it)
The other got taken by a red kite.

After the stress they've put me through this year, I can't wait to eat the little bds

Have to admit to buying some Sainsbury mince pies the other day!

[CypherP]

Sainsbury's had advent calendars in their main superstores a couple of weeks ago. Was appalled to spot them while walking around doing my weekly shop in the MIDDLE OF SEPTEMBER!

Not to mention the colleague who has a 99 day christmas countdown every year! I'll be bored of christmas again by mid-October.

I'm with you Cotty . Christmas never feels Christmassy because it starts waaay to early. As much as I love the song I wasn't amused to hear "Fairytale of New York" on the pub jukebox Sat night.
