I didn't get this in the first place. Stores put out Christmas stuff even before we're done with Halloween anymore. They also put out stuff for Thanksgiving and New Years. The entire period is now HOLIDAY shopping - not just Christmas shopping. I've never understood what the big deal is!
Now, if I'm in a store shopping close to Christmas, then yes, I say Merry Christmas to people but if I'm shopping before Thanksgiving, then I will say Happy Holidays because it is then the HOLIDAY season - not the Christmas season! Get a life people!
Let's stop hanging on every word someone speaks and just learn how to be nice to each other! That will make it nicer for everyone!
