For me, Christmas decorating begins the day after Thanksgiving.  I have all of my Christmas decor down in our basement, and even though I have it fairly organized, it is a big undertaking as I have to go up and down stairs probably a million times until I get everything up!

I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year, and I want my fall decorations up for my guests...otherwise, it would feel like Christmas dinner!  I may put X-mas into the swing of things in our front sitting/living room that we don't use much just so I can get a head-start before Thanksgiving, but that will be it.  I want the rest of the house to still be in the fall mode!

We leave our Christmas decorations up until the first week of January.

If your local stores just started putting out x-mas stuff yesterday, that's well after my local stores.  LOL

Our Walmart changed over the lawn and garden area to Christmas stuff several weeks ago.  Our Kohls has had x-mas stuff out for at least a month. 

Heck our grocery store had Halloween candy on the shelves by July 23.
