CHRISTMAS comes nearly five months early at one over-eager garden centre.
Baubles, stockings and snowmen went on sale inside a grotto at Summerhill Garden Centre in Billericay, Essex, this week.
It features a Santa selfie seat for taking snaps of the big man in his off-season.
A sign also urges shoppers to spread the cost of Christmas – by splurging now.
It adds that Christmas is only “half way” away.
