By now, you’re all familiar with Christmas Creep, the insidious inching of the holiday shopping season earlier and earlier into the year. But there’s a lesser-known holiday creep that is already showing up on the shelves of at least one retailer.
Consumerist reader Colleen spotted the above Valentine’s Day-themed section at her local Kmart in Ohio, with about 60 days still to go before Feb. 14, the day on which we all commemorate the death of a martyred third-century Roman saint by trying to make last-minute dinner reservations before attempting to convince our significant others that a romantic meal at home would be even better.
It’s also the day many of us run out to stores like Kmart to buy last-minute, craptacular gifts like pink stuffed bears.
