Why are they selling Halloween candy in stores already ??


It's August 21 for crying out loud. Is this a Canadian thing only ?

Why? Because it's almost Labor Day.

the store I work at wanted it out by august 1st. our district is always trying to pump sales when all it does is irritate most people. from what i see, only people that really go crazy over decorations and candy are teachers and those moms that love to have themed parties.

i like to put stuff like this out on the shelves because i get to see new candy/decorations. like sour patch kids made candy corn. looks nasty though.

It's a retail thing. Stores are seasonal

The Back to Schools sales are conflicting with Halloween. I don't like it.

I bought some wrapping paper from the card shop today and they already have Christmas cards and 2019 calendars out for sale 😑

They're hoping you buy it, then eat it, then buy more.
Just think, the more you can take to work with you after Halloween.
The office will love you.

Simple. To make money. That's the reason behind all capitalism.
