Christmas Season?

The department stores such as Myers, Target, and KMart in Australia have started to decorate and sale stuffs for Christmas holiday at least 2-3 weeks ago. We can hear Christmas songs in these major department store now. It is very strange. It is late September or early October only.

There are still 3 months to Christmas holiday, why do they start it now? Maybe there are too few holidays in Australia? Hmmm, maybe Australian should create more big holidays like American, then people have so many opportunities to buy gifts and foods to stimulate economics. In US, New Year, Valentine Day, Easter Day, Independent Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. People spend money in these holidays.
