At what point into the year, should you stop saying ´Happy New Year’? I think it should cut off at Jan. 13th. I’m sick of it.

  • I think that's a good idea.  After all, we have to start saying "Happy Valentine's Day" now.  At least before they start putting out the Christmas decorations again ... lol!

    Have you seen the "Holiday tree" in stores, yet?

    They use a Christmas tree ... and change the decorations (and light colors) for each holiday.

    Within 24 hours of the new year starting.
    Of course, what calendar you're using matters.  LOL

    January 6. But I won't get upset if someone slips up and says it on the 7th. I'm very tolerant like that.
