Best Buy will have “doorbuster” deals available in store at that time, but those same prices will also be available online, the company says. They’ve just changed into something that means you can spend time with your family on Thanksgiving, and still get a sweet deal on a TV in time for Christmas.
Amazon- Black Friday deals started early at Amazon: 25 days ahead of the big shopping event.
Toys “R” Us and Target announced on Monday they will be opening Thanksgiving Day and will join others who have previously said the same such as Kohl’s, Belk, Sears and Macy’s. While more stores are opening and opening earlier on Thanksgiving, others are switching and shutting down for the holiday. Now, all Black Friday deals are available throughout Thanksgiving and Black Friday, subject to availability, and most of the deals are available online as well as in stores, which open at 6 p.m. Thanksgiving Day. But this year, Wal-Mart is giving those who would rather shop on their couch while wearing pajamas more access to Black Friday sales.
The holiday shopping season is right around the corner or, in some cases, here now.
H&M’s announcement is part of an overall trend to scale back the Black Friday frenzy, after it ramped up and spilled into Thanksgiving in recent years. It’s not unusual to hear horror stories of shoppers gone wild trying to get consumer goods at low, low prices at the annual mega-sales on one of the busiest shopping days of the year. REI stores will be closed Thanksgiving and Black Friday – a first for the company. A new batch of doorbusters become available again at 3 p.m. on Black Friday. With about 75 percent of the walmart.com traffic this holiday season expected to come from mobile devices, Walmart has updated its app with ratings, reviews, buying guides, and tutorials, as well maps that show the locations of hot products in your local store.
