		<description>Yup, Costco has the decorations up. Two weeks ago there wasn&#039;t nearly as much as they had on Friday. The Jusco near us is attached to a pretty decent mall, so I&#039;ll be checking back there periodically. Thanks again!</description>

		<description>Hi Katie, I got them at Jusco, but that was a year ago. It&#039;s still a bit early this year, and I&#039;m surprised you say Costco already has decorations for sale. It gets earlier every year!</description>

		<description>I love those and am anxious to send Japanese Christmas cards out to our friends and family back in the U.S. Where did you find these? I know there is a Jusco about 30 minutes from me and same with Costco. Costco had decorations for sale last week, but no cards.</description>

		<description>Nice.  I&#039;ll definately buy some of those for my family and friends back in Canada and Norway :)

I&#039;ve seen some Christmas stuff at Apita and Seki Jusco recently and thought it was a bit weird, as well.  When I asked Reiko why the decorations were out so early even though we work on Christmas Day, she said &quot;it&#039;s just one of those strange Japan things.&quot;

I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll ever understand some of the things we do in this country, but it&#039;s certainly fun to learn and say &quot;ehh?&quot; :P</description>
