I don't know. The supermarket I shop in had hot cross buns on the shelf
in the bread aisle less than 2 weeks into January, and Easter eggs have
been on sale there for a week or so now (How many Easter eggs bought now
are still going to be uneaten by Easter!). Given that, surely it won't be
long before the Christmas decorations are back out again....

They used to at least get past Valentine's Day before the Easter stuff
came out, but no longer it seems. Ridiculous, isn't it.
