I stopped by the dollar store yesterday for a few items. In the middle of the aisle just as you enter the store there was a row of tables with all the leftover discounted items from Christmas. Just to the left of this row of tables is the main cash register which now sports a display of Cadbury Creme Eggs. Suggestions of Easter already and we've not quite seen the end of the year, nor approached Valentine's Day--though, at least, Easter is a real holiday.
