Early Bird 2013

The Early Bird Sale is always a fun shopping day. This year there are 4 Early Bird Sales on three Saturdays in November

• November 2 in Bath and Damariscotta
• November 9 in Wiscasset
• November 23 in Boothbay Harbor

Early Bird Sales are all about fun and silliness is encouraged. Dress in your (or someone else’s) pajamas. Wear a bathrobe. Slippers not required, but they're a nice touch, especially bunny slippers.Boothbay Harbor offers more than just discount shopping, with a Pajama Parade and a Bed Race. Both offer prizes.Stores open early on sale days, sometimes as early as 5 a.m. And it pays to get there early. Many sales offer bigger discounts the earlier you shop. In some cases discounts run as high as 40-45% off regular prices. Check here and in the paper for details on each store’s deals.
That's the Early Bird concept. If you haven't been to one, you've missed a lot of fun. It's a great date for young (or old) couples, and moms and dads love to bring along the kids in their pajamas. The kids love the silliness, and will probably remember it when they're 72. For others it's a fun thing to do with friends.
The individual event pages can be reached by clicking on the town name. The pages will evolve as more information about each town's event is provided. Come back often to see what's been added since the last time you looked. Ads will begin going up on town pages one week before the event. To make it easier for you to figure out where to go for what and when, we'll pull together some charts and schedules.
If you’re a bargain hunter, just an early morning person who loves fun, or you enjoy a close relationship with a bargain hunter, get up early on three Saturdays in November and make memories.
