Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way.....

If you think the U.S.A. is guilty of "rushing" Christmas, just come on down here and we'll take a shopping tour of the PriceSmart (Costco or Sam's in the U.S.A.) and we can start picking out Christmas Decorations. Yep, you read it here first. Christmas Decoration are already on display not only at PriceSmart, but also Aliss. We were in there yesterday and saw them ourselves. Now, they don't have Halloween and Thanksgiving to buffer the Christmas crunch, but holy-moly....Christmas in August??!!! I actually should have blogged this two weeks ago when we first saw the PriceSmart displays. Oh well.....
Now this brings me to Mother's Day in Costa Rica. It is celebrated on August 15 - no matter the day of the week and it is a Federal Holiday....they shut down!! Not bad. Other than that, it is the typical Mother's Day along with flowers, lunches and various appliances go on sale.
Commerce is commerce.....
Have a happy day!
