Is anyone else seeing this yet?

Pumpkin everything.

I saw Halloween candy and Halloween “decor” at the mall yesterday.

My son just brought home some pumpkin beer.

It’s August 9th for Pete’s sake!

I wasn't even in the candy aisle. The bags were on an end cap display at the front of the store.

That’s what the guy at Lowe’s told me. We got a metal table, 4 swivel/rocking chairs, 4 fixed chairs, and an 11 foot LED light solar umbrella for $700 - normally $1300-1400.
