Michigan retailers are checking their holiday shopping receipts.
The longer than normal holiday shopping season wraps up amid predictions that sales have not been quite as good as expected.
"We’ve noticed it’s been a little more spread out than usual," Peggy Hayes is the marketing director for the Twelve Oaks Mall in Novi, the largest shopping mall in Michigan, "Often times, people wait until the last minute…but we’re found it’s been spread out…over the holiday season this year.”
A Michigan Retailers Association spokesman says electronics and gift cards are among the most popular gifts.
