00:00It's less than 100 days until Christmas, mince pies, Christmas decorations and boxes
00:05of chocolates are already front and centre at some supermarkets.
00:10But when is it acceptable to start doing Christmas shopping?
00:13It's too early to start Christmas shopping, and Wendy, have you thought about that yet?
00:19No.
00:20Deals are starting to go up in supermarkets.
00:22I saw mince pies yesterday, I think it's too early.
00:26Considering the way the economy is and the difficulty that people, it just puts more
00:31pressure on people who can't afford to spend huge amounts at Christmas.
00:37I think the meaning of Christmas has been lost, and we should be more thinking about
00:43what we can do to help people and putting more back into the community rather than buying
00:48big expensive presents for one another.
00:51Any time before December.

00:53Yeah.
00:54Far too early.
