The holiday shopping season traditionally kicks off on the day after Thanksgiving. This year, "Black Friday" is Nov. 29. But Maine retailers and other businesses have already geared up.

The Downtown Bangor Partnership is promoting the area as "holiday headquarters." A group of retail outlets in Kittery claims that "holiday magic begins here." A hotel in South Portland has already advertised special rates for holiday shoppers at the Maine Mall.

With so much holiday hype — and Christmas still six weeks out — it seems Maine businesses are hoping for a lot underneath the tree.

    I think this holiday season will be fine for most people. People are working and from what I hear doing better financially, so this should equal more spending.
