Tis The Season To Part With Your Money...

Tonight Myer Department Store is opened till 9.00 pm so they can have a special Christmas sale! Stores normally close at 5.30 pm here except for Thursdays and Fridays so this is a big deal to us!So we decided to check it out but we got there early and business was quite slow.
There are many discounted merchandises to lure customers to part with their money!
One department that interests me is their Christmas decorations department which reminds me of a couple of posts Ashk1n did some time back so I thought to myself I have to do one too to get into the spirit of Christmas!
This Myer store I'm in is just a suburban store which mean its not as big as the city's store which have more to see as was in Ash's post.
Despite being small they still have the decorations needed to tempt you to buy, buy, buy!
Its just not Christmas without the christmas tree and its balls!
More decorations.
Gotta have the 3 wise kings.
I think Santa's lost some weight this year, maybe Mrs Clause left him with one of his elves and nobody cook for Santa all year.

We didn't stay long after buying a couple of "little" things before we went home..nothing exciting at all.

Yeah! I have been to Myers in Melbourne before. :)

I love the Christmas spirit and can't wait to take out the baubles. Over here, only one departmental store starts decorating. The rest still in Raya mood.

Christmas was stolen from the pagans who celebrated the return of the sun, the longer days; it has nothing to do with Jesus' birth.

This is the annual brainwashing for Christmas gifts that begin around November?

What about the other REALLY ridiculous things religion makes people buy into?

Bunnies and Easter eggs, and never having to explain the connection between them - oh yeah, sure, it's about fertility.

Or, how about forced starvation/fasts? Having to eat fish on Fridays or God will what, kill you?

Or that Harry Potter is evil (when it really teaches good morals and is fun)? Or that all pagans or witches are Satanists - not to mention that religions "borrowed" a lot from the pagans, such as holidays based on the seasons and phases of the moon?
