Even as you read this, the beautiful decorations are being set out in DG’s and Targets everywhere! There is no escape… so you might as well embrace the cheery vibe sooner rather than later.

There are also some unusual traditions that make us smile... such as Krampus (an evil accomplice to Saint Nick,) who takes the greedy and bad kids away… or the German tradition of being the first to find a pickle in the tree (in order to get an extra gift from the Big Man).

And then there are those kids that are bad the whole year around and are frantically doing whatever it takes to get off the naughty list.. Not gonna lie… We love it all! Have an amazing Nightmare Before Christmas! From the J-Squad.
