Yesterday, I was in the Chicago area (Hammond, Indiana) and had a few
moments free and stopped in a local Wal-Mart .  I went looking through there
Christmas display area and noticed that all of their products made by
HOLIDAY TIME were dual FFU(SI).  In many cases the SI was fairly rational.
But, there was still a couple of items overly exact in centimetres (xx.yy cm
format).  I can't understand how they produce all this cheap plastic stuff
to an accuracy of 0.1 mm.

Maybe some of you could check out your local stores and report here the
extent of SI appearing on Christmas decorations.  Last year I remember
everything being FFU only.  So, even though SI isn't first, at least it is
there.
