Nope.
Enter the word Kwanzaa and....0 results found for “Kwanzaa”
My thought as well.
Um, just what "event" are we celebrating?
We're in Florida so it can't be snow.
The unspeakable event.
I sure hope that there isn’t an early cut and run in the War on Christmas again this year. The Holiday Bowl always gets a pass even though it is played only a few days after Christmas. The Godless NCAA needs to stop making Touchdown Jesus cry.
WELL the orlando target that i go to has a big MERRY CHRISTMAS banner prominently displayed in the middle of the concourse of thier store...
Christmas music being played at Barnes & Noble.
Sometimes the good guys do win.
I had fun a couple of years ago by going into K-Mart and hanging out next to the “Holiday Trees”. When someone would come and start eyeing the trees as if they were thinking of buying one, I would talk them out of a “Holiday Tree” and tell them they wanted to go find a store or place that sold Christmas Trees instead. After my evening of fun, I came home and emailed the CEO of K-Mart and told him what I had done. Never heard a word.

Last year I tried to buy a Christmas gift certificate at Lowes. They didn’t have any. They had Holiday gift certificates. The manager explained that they didn’t want to offend anybody.
Last year, during all of this Happy Holiday fiasco, our store was visited by the Regional Manager and his staff. I had a bucket of miniature candy canes sitting on the electrical desk with a sign proclaiming "Merry Christmas". The regional and district managers both commented that it was a good idea, snatched a piece of peppermint, and continued with their tour of the store.
Thanks for the inside info. Looks like the AFA exposure got whoever puts together Lowes website to make some changes. Now Christmas brings up 98 returns while Holiday gets 174. I guess it was a little too obvious when both searches brought up exactly the same number of returns. LOL I’m wondering what they took out, holiday wreaths? holiday garland?
The banners in Target say Christmas.
Our Home Depot flyer today was advertising “Miracle Trees”. The photo sure looked like a Christmas Tree to me, but it might be another case of a poor typist or inferior proofreader. I can see how easy it would be to think you’re typing “c-h-r-i-s-t-m-a-s” but end up with “m-i-r-a-c-l-e”. They’re so close. Sheesh.

They were trying really hard not to say Christmas.
And when does Santa come?
During the holidays. No particular time. He gets there when he gets there
LOL, just got off the line with a customer service rep on their 800-line, she blamed it on “those pc types” and said she would make sure my comments were sent to her supervisor.
