Feeling festive? The Brown Thomas Christmas shop is opening this week

It's getting earlier every year!

By Steve Neville

It's August, so you know what that means - Christmas!

Wait. What?

We know Christmas may be the furthest thing from your mind, especially considering most people are still enjoying the summer, but that hasn't stopped Brown Thomas.

The retailer is set to open their Christmas Shop on Thursday at its Dublin, Cork and Limerick stores.

Naturally, some people are disgusted. But the Christmas lovers are only delighted.

Christmas shop has opened in Brown Thomas, women in work are outraged and I'm trying to hide my delight because I love Christmas!
