There is still one month to go before Christmas, but smart merchants have made early attempt. In mid November, some department stores and supermarkets have launched related gifts to make earlier profit.

      In a supermarket situated in Xvdong Road, Wuhan, various Christmas gifts with fined design have been available, attracting lots of kids and adults. Moreover, in department stores, small items like cell phone straps, small bells, and bigger one like toy cars and toy dolls are not restricted to traditional X’ mas style. Sales staff says that, these are all imported from Hong Kong, Korea and other regions for the coming holiday.

      An accessories store in Simenkou, Christmas hats, Santa Claus figures and bells are available as well. Owner says, these are for decoration, since sales peak will not come until last month.

      Though it is a western holiday, young men in the city love it so merchants start an upsurge of promotion by this occasion. █
