Hobby Lobby is a good one for that - HOWEVER, they ARE a craft store and it takes time to make seasonal, handmade things. From a Retail Perspective (18 years of it!) I totally get it.

I NEVER put out ‘Christmas’ until the day AFTER Thanksgiving. My Garden Center Customers appreciated it. Never had one complaint in 10 years. Those people were MY people. :)

Yeah, crafts are different. You have to have at least a two month (or in my case year) jump on making presents or decorations.

But some local retailers that are not craft stores had Christmas stuff out before Labor Day. And that is a bit too soon.
