Scrooge says cancel Christmas!
Yes, its that time fo year when the shops are busy and your surrounded by stupid santa clauses. Its enough to drive you mad. Tell us what you think of Christmas, is it too commercial? Is the spirit of Christmas gone?

Can anyone remember a time when Christmas wasn't about hammering the plastic or digging so deep into your bank account overdraft facility that you would still be trying to shovel your way out of debt for the next six months?

| 11-10-2007 | Christmas is awesome. And if it is ablolisehed I will still celebrate it. Who cares what reasons we celebrate or what we choose to buy or not buy. Loosen up and enjoy life. Its not that serious. | Joe |
| 05-9-2007 | It would be a really great thing for the economy if Christmas was actually abolished and all the priests and their ilk promoting it cast into prison, for deceiving the public.
Christmas "all about the family" bull excrement. It's all about making China richer from all the junk badly...more | Ban Xmas |

| 09-11-2006 | I agree with the sentiments that Christmas is too commercial. It doesn't matter if you're on a low income or a high income because it so easy to get into debt these days and loose track of what you are spending. You have to be extra vigilant and stay within a budget. Meanwhile there are bi...more | Matt |

| 31-10-2006 | Agree, but suggestions would be nice. Suggest folk look to a charity that provides for those without. Consider buying a virtual brick at http://www.mtitu.org.uk or buying some chicks or goats etc at http://www.heifer.org
You'll feel so much better about giving. | Lyn |
