It may still be summer, but Halloween has arrived in NJ

Summer's not even over yet and retailers are already thinking Halloween. In fact, Spirit Halloween locations have been spotted popping up in NJ, well before the Labor Day holiday.

Every year, retailers seem to try and push holiday sales earlier, and earlier. Before the leaves even have a chance to change color for the fall, we'll probably be decking the halls under the mistletoe.

And this will only become more commonplace as we get closer to October 31. Well, that, and the pumpkin spice push that is also underway (because there's nothing like enjoying a PSL while searching for that perfect costume... in August).

With that said, check out examples of some of the Halloween displays that have popped up around the Great Garden State even though summer is still in full swing.
