This is total speculation, but generally, CHFI is one of the first in the market to go all Christmas all the time, a regular topic of discussion here. In the past, it usually happens soon after Remembrance Day, which is Monday.
But could there be a big difference this year that might cause the Yuletide from rushing in? The long anticipated (and incredibly hyped) Taylor Swift series of concerts begins later this week. I admit I don't know a lot about her music - not in the demo - but I'm pretty sure she doesn't do any Christmas material.
If they did make the switch, it would theoretically prevent them from playing her music while she's in town. And that wouldn't make a lot of sense, given the whole city will never stop hearing about this. Swift is in town until Nov. 23rd.
Anyone want to bet they don't make the annual change until after that?
For the record, last year they didn't pull the Christmas switch until Nov. 19th. So waiting a few extra days might make sense.
Again, total speculation but we'll see what they decide.
