Some people need a Holiday store. All the holidays all of the time. Nothing special, nothing to look forward to, because it’s all there all of the time.
as a wise man said, if they can start celebrating Christmas in October, we can start celebrating Halloween in August. (around here, there are skeletons (large) up all year round)
This is my neighbor. They start the first week of August every year. 8-10 foot tall skeletons, animal skeletons, demons, 2 partial piper cup plane bodies, helicopter cab, you get it. The doll babies hanging by their necks from the trees have not been taken down in 3 years. Me and my other neighbors HATE IT! Plus, the traffic problems it causes.
The Safeways in the San Francisco area start breaking out the pumpkin stuff (pumpkin desserts (not just pie), pumpkin spice Keurig cups, even pumpkin beer) around August 20

Quite the opposite, actually. Pluggers don’t anticipate like WalMart, they always get caught by surprise.

My neighbor has a really tall skeleton in his front yard, and chooses to leave it up all year. Gives me a smile every time I pass.
