To everything there is a season

Things I will not buy, because they are running Christmas commercials and it is NOT CHRISTMAS YET:

1. Nissan cars
2. North Carolina lottery tickets
3. Biltmore House tickets
4. Glade candles
5. Anything from Walmart
6. Anything from Sears
7. Anything from JCPenney
8. A new Wii
9. Packaged cookie dough, not that I would buy that anyway

Look, I love Christmas. But I also love Halloween and Thanksgiving, and I would really like to celebrate them without having them completely erased by jingly bells.

I will accept Christmas commercials starting December 1. If you really insist, I'll accept them starting on Black Friday. But I started seeing them while watching the election returns on November 2. That is just uncalled for.
