The autumn that no longer even reaches El Corte Inglés
The thread recalls the campaign that for years marked the end of summer and the start of the school year. One participant claims it's no longer promoted; another insists they haven't run those ads for about 30 years. Another comment summarizes it with "It's October at El Corte Inglés". There is no official confirmation of this withdrawal.
From seasonal ritual to email offers
A forum user reports receiving a constant stream of emails with offers, even for potato chips, from Hipercor, and being sent financing options of up to 3,500 euros interest-free. These are user comments, not confirmed data.
A rewritten climate calendar
One participant argues that the cold has been reduced to the first fortnight of January. Previously, they say, it was considerably cold around All Saints' Day; now the question is whether a light jacket is enough in the morning before taking it off by nine. Another states that rain hasn't appeared for months. Another user mentions a store already stocking winter clothing despite the lack of cold.
The thread mixes nostalgia for the advertisement with comments about the climate and commercial appeals.
