Even before the school bells are ringing for many families, retailers are sounding sleigh bells.

Yes, that's right. With 120-plus shopping days left, stores are already talking up their holiday offers.

Toys R Us announced Wednesday that it would expand its price-match guarantee to include online retailers including Amazon.com, Walmart.com, Target.com and BestBuy.com, among others. The aim, according to the release, "Removing any doubt before holiday shopping begins in earnest that customers are receiving the best available prices."

Christmas shopping season starts earlier and earlier. What next, Christmas sales after New Years????????  :mental:

I'll admit that I've started my Christmas knitting, but that is because I'm a slow knitter, and I tend to overestimate what I'm capable of  :rotf:

Sept is just around the corner and I have noticed some stores are changing their shelves probably in preparation for the holidays.
