'Madness' - Kildare shop has Christmas trees for sale!
Woodies in Newbridge, Co Kildare, has begun displaying and selling its Christmas stock, almost three months out from Christmas Day
Shoppers in Kildare have been left divided over Christmas stock turning up in supermarkets and now the likes of Woodies with Christmas tree and baubles on sale beside Halloween decorations.
The above picture was taken in Woodies in Newbridge, Co Kildare, on Sunday, September 28, almost three months out from Christmas Day.
The image shows Christmas stock displayed with trees on the floor, some complete with lights, for sale beside skulls and ghost decorations and Halloween stock.
Last week, most supermarkets laid out some of their Christmas stock with festive food and decorations already on the shelves.
One shopper in Woodies on Sunday described it as "madness" and suggested all stores hold onto their Christmas stock until after Halloween.
Another pointed out that just down the road in Newbridge, the Christmas section of the Newbridge Silverware shop is open all year round, suggesting, "if people don't want to browse and buy it, they don't have to."
