Actually now is the best time to buy your wrapping paper, lights ... while they are selling them off dirt cheap.
Actually, my partner Clare has, this very morning, headed off into town to stock up on the wrapping paper, gift tags, cards, etc etc for _exactly that reason_ (but she does start the rest of it about August)
Jeez....I think Orthodox Christians (like myself) get it pretty nicely. Our Christmas is on the 7th on January, so, not is everyone who isn't Orthodox Christian tuckered out from Christmas and New Years, we also get all the mean sales.
It's not that Ukrainians like to barter, and haggle until we get lower costs, we just planned ahead 1000+ years.

The day more appropriately known as "the day before boxing day".
Well to retain Mega Man X's pedantic mode - Boxing day? Well only in UK and/or some of the commonwealth countries. Erm does the US have a name for the day after crimbo ??? don't know.
In the R.O.I. it'd be "Stevens" (or St Stevens) day, but "christmass" might be a "catholic" thing but I wouldn't know, the atheist b*****d that I am (insert small smilie with left arm raised in "power to the people" and broad sardonic smile).
