Have you been thinking that Holiday themed items and sales promotions appeared earlier than usual? If so, you aren't imagining it! Retailers did this intentionally, all in an effort to get shoppers to notice. Since Thanksgiving falls later in the month than it has in recent years, retailers felt that they needed to push sales a bit to get us shopping earlier! Did it work?

Great post! Several of my friends and I have been talking about this seemingly rush by retailers to start the holiday shopping season a lot earlier this year. We've noticed that advertisers began promoting holiday sales within the same week as Halloween. I'm curious to know how many consumers have reacted to this push and are now hitting the stores.
