Here is a great video concerning the lack of “Christmas” in some of the “holiday” advertising......

“costco says no to Christmas...”

and there are many lovers of Christman who will say no to costco. (this one included.)

I’m offended. Costco sucks!

Costco is now NoGo for me.
The only way we can return America to its roots and what it was is to do so with the dollar bill.
So Costco thinks they are more atheists and muslims in America then Christians. Maybe they should find out the hard way. The bottom line on the balance sheet.

Fredo, shop at Costco, and disappoint us.

I’m glad i do not work for some lib-P.C. company!

I will NEVER spend a penny with these atheistic ba$turds... I'd bet they will soon have ramadan sales. If they are anti-Christ, they are anti-American... an evil company to the core. I wipe the dust of their store from the soles of my feet and I will NOT look back.

My local Walmart has a big sign in its entrance... “MERRY CHRISTMAS”... Go Walmart!

O’Reilly needs to hear about this one. He’ll have it all over the web/air/TV by tonight.

They will be holding board meetings next year (as many other companies will) in which they will be fighting for their very existence... and they will wish they had not permanently angered believers like me. They will miss me... and Sams and Walmart will benefit directly. We are headed for some truly bad times and this will tip the scales. Get back to me next Christmas with their how well their customer base is holding up. It is stupid to anger any traditional America group in the face of a possible depression. Owning three businesses... I can assure you that millions of us "business people" are nervous.

Typical pagan response.

no Christmas...no Chrismas $$

I am tired of being insulted by the Politically Correct.

[VermiciousKnid]

Well...I’m not sure about Target’s advertising, but at least in our local stores, I see “Christmas” items displayed pretty much everywhere in the stores.

Again, I’m not sure about their advertising, though.

I will buy Christmas gifts at Sam’s Club and perhaps on Arbor Day I will stop by Costco and purchase any “holiday” gifts I need for that occasion.

[BullDog108]

I am not even Christian, but I am going to boycott COSTCO. I am starting to get fed up with all this nonsense!

[Patrsup]

I understand the frustration; however I choose to use a different tact. I spend my time in the checkout line discussing the fact that not calling it Christmas doesn’t make it not Christmas. This way I get to share the season with those around me who might not otherwise know about the policy. I usually get 3 to 4 customers, the cashier and the loader if there is one.

The cashier says “Thanks for shopping at Costco”, I say “I hope you guys have a Merry Christmas” very loudly so the people in the checkout lines around me can hear and as I walk away I mention that “Christ is the reason for the season”.

Remember - ignorant people always will believe what they believe.

Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It’s perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we’ve learned something from yesterday. -John Wayne

Our company 'Holiday" party is next week. The E-mail said we should dress in our best "Holiday" attire.

Me and a few guys are talking about going as a "Live Nativity".

Merry Xmas!

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Merry Tossmas!

I promise to buy every “holiday” gift I intend to buy from Costco, but since we celebrate Christmas at my house and since they don’t have any Christmas gifts or Christmas decorations, I suppose I will have to shop elsewhere for those items.

[ravensandricks]

I once worked with a woman who said “holiday” and only “holiday.” It was infuriating. She would say things like, “We need to prepare for Holiday” and “With Holiday coming up, we should have a strategy in place.” Not even a “the” to preface “Holiday.” It was as if the actual name of the holiday was, in fact, “Holiday.”
