It’s almost Christmas, and the warehouse store Bunnings has started the holiday season by displaying Christmas decorations in its stores.
The decision to start the season early has caused a debate online, with some people questioning if the company went too far.
Some customers are annoyed by the odd timing of the displays, similar to the controversy around the hot cross bun.
It’s a blessing to know that Christmas preparations are already underway, even if it means getting organized early.
A customer posted a picture of the Christmas display at Bunnings, which seemed like it was already a very early start to the holiday season.
The store is currently selling various items, such as holiday decorations and Christmas character lights.
Another shopper noted that the Big W in August had Christmas items on its shelves. Many people took to Facebook to voice their opinions about the decision of the retailer to start the season early.
They claimed that it was taking away the Christmas spirit.
One person called it crazy that Christmas decorations would be on sale in June, while another stated that they would be just like hot cross buns throughout the year.
Others commended the company for starting the season early, as it allows them to get organized before the holiday rush.
One person suggested that the company should start adding more items to its Christmas display every week instead of just dropping money so close to the holiday.
Another person claimed that the company was intentionally feeding the masses by selling out quickly.
According to one person, the company’s decision to start the holiday season early is due to the increasing demand for Christmas decorations. It’s also because people are getting ready for Halloween.
Another person noted that last year, the company started the season in August.
Another individual stated that the setting up of Christmas decorations would begin soon, and they would be done by December 1.
Many customers believe that the early start to the season gives people an opportunity to save money and buy later, which is why many stores stock up early.
Some people also stated that retailers follow standard timelines in Australia.
