We happened to be strolling through Macy's in Center City Philadelphia today and noticed that Christmas has already arrived -- at least at the third floor housewares department, anyway -- and in some other store departments.
And Macy's Christmas shop opens tomorrow.
Hey, we love Macy's but we don't like to see the season rushed.
People have been complaining about Christmas creep at area stores -- and rightfully so.
You know what we're talking about: All those Christmas decorations at stores, malls and shopping centers that go up even before Halloween. It's downright creepy -- and greedy.
But not at Nordstrom.
No -- the classiest (and arguably, the finest) department store simply will not feature Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving.
This is a long-standing Nordstrom policy and from what we hear Nordstrom has no intention of changing it now.
Isn't that refreshing?
Bravo to Nordstrom for resisting Christmas creep!
