Overdue for a Rant!

What is with stores seasonal wares? It seems every time I need something it is 'out of season'! Last fall I wanted some torch oil for my tiki torches and not a single store had a drop, yet today the stuff is at the end of every isle. Last week my daughter needed as swim suit and I lucked out, they were on clearance cause they were getting rid of the summer clothes... in early JULY. Good thing I didn't wait till August when it is much to cold out to swim. Then today I wanted some pool supplies for my hot tub. 3 stores had cleared out the stuff, one had only a few items left. Target was moving out all the lawn and garden stuff for back to school supplies!, in JULY? Retailers wonder why they are loosing out to online stores.. do you think it might be because you can get what you want, WHEN you need it online. I am not one to plan ahead, or wait for a package in the mail. I like instant gratification, I don't even like to wait till I get home to open my new products, I often have the packaging ripped off and in the garbage can on my way out the store.. that's why they put those there right?
