Please note that these are ideal display dates;
exact dates for your location may vary based
on display space and
other factors.
Last order dates are generally one month prior to each holiday, with the exception of Confirmation,
First Communion, and Graduation, which have varying holiday dates and allow for reorders.
Returns are generally due 2 months after each holiday. The Graduation return date applies only
to those accounts that do not display Graduation year round.
General Guideline:
Display product for at least 30 days immediately preceding the applicable holiday.
Begin displaying holidays from a display period as the holidays from the preceding
display period sell through. For example, as St. Patrick's Day starts selling through,
begin to display Mother's Day.
