Walk into the Christmas Store at Potters in November and it’s a little overwhelming, in the best way. Potters Nursery in Surrey turns more than 28,000 square feet over to Christmas: detailed themed displays, tens of thousands of decorations, and more than 50,000 ornaments, from “Baby’s First Christmas” to dogs, food and travel.

The store opens November 1 and runs for about nine weeks. Here are the hours, how to get the weekly 20% off coupons and how to make a Surrey Christmas day of it.
