Kate Tuttle: I wish they’d just wait till after July 4! And regionalize it. When we had a child in the Georgia public schools, they started back August 1. But here in NJ and all points north, it’s after Labor Day!

It is *JUNE*

Target is starting to replace gardening with back to school supplies. 😡

I can tell you, as a retail worker whose busy time is back-to-school, back-to-school season is already in full gear. We're gettin' killed out here.

Retail worker here; I can only speak for my area, but we put out our supplies July 5th or a bit later! But having Halloween out in late JUNE is too early!

Agreed! And of course I don’t blame the workers for any of it.

Although I did get a nightmare regarding those supplies after stocking them for WEEKS!

I guess I'm in a special category as we don't sell July 4th stuff but we sell back-to-school like gangbusters.
