I think they usually decorate around the middle of November and take them down in early January. Here are a few holiday pix:

We are also going Thanksgiving week. See you there We are not expecting to see a whole bunch of decorations yet. From doing searches on previous years, it appears Grinchmas typically starts around 12/9 or 12/10. I would assume that would mean that decorating would be "in progress" during Thanksgiving week to make the 12/10 date. A couple of posts from 11/05 mentioned that they started putting the decorations up Thanksgiving weekend.

I really hope we are pleasantly surprised, as we have been for Grinchmas before and it is lovely!

Historically, the Christmas decorations haven't gone up until after Thanksgiving (actually around the second week in December) and come down on January 1. It would be nice to have the decorations up at Thanksgiving but I'm sure it has a lot to do with getting the Macy's balloons in (which are a major part of the holiday decorations and they're in use elsewhere on Thanksgiving day). But since I work in the la-la land of night time entertainment I can only make an educated guess on that.
