Frazier Allen: Why Holiday Shopping Begins in Summer
Clarksville, TN – Big-box retailers increasingly push consumers to forget the date on the calendar and purchase back-to-school items, pumpkins and Christmas trees in the same shopping trip.

Stocking holiday merchandise sooner gives retailers a jump on the competition and extends the amount of time consumers have to buy, for good reason.
Discover the reasons retailers start the holidays sooner and how those decisions impact store operations.

Tennessee Department of Agriculture says On Your Mark, Get Set and Slow Down for Fall
Nashville, TN – It’s September, and Christmas décor is lining store shelves. You’d think that the seasons are determined by which week school starts, and we’d all be wise to air out our winter coats now.
