There is some [[Truth in Television]], as mentioned by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_in_July That Other Wiki]. Most holiday TV specials and movies are filmed during the summer season (so you're sweating like a pig...), and some stores do offer Christmas In July sales to get rid of all their old Christmas stock. The crafting community especially embraces Christmas in July, making all their wreaths, decorations and other Christmas crafts in July to either keep for themselves or sell at craft sales in November. Additionally, in Australia and other southern hemisphere countries, much of the imagery and conditions of Christmas in July is the default in actual Christmas, and conversely there's a tendency to hold Christmas stuff in July to take advantage of the fact that the weather then is more like traditional northern-hemisphere Christmases.
