17. Exactly. The corporations want us always living three months in the future.

I was looking for a current season jacket with football logo.
But didn't want to pay full price. And wanted it for fall and early winter wear.
And could be worn with a sweater in very cold weather.

All of them had been moved out and heavy winter coats in their place.

It is still autumn and still football season!

Interestingly the store kept some of the jackets for men out.
But the women's had all been moved out for winter stuff.
