Black Friday Shopping

As you prepare your holiday shopping lists, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for Black Friday deals.  Many stores are starting deals early - on Thanksgiving Day.  Many families will enjoy their turkey, dressing, and pumpkin pie while perusing the sale papers and online ads, creating their holiday shopping list.  Black Friday is creeping earlier into the holiday, so many shoppers will carb up at Thanksgiving lunch and then hit the stores!
Below is a list of stores that are opening Thanksgiving Day:

• 9:00 am - 4:00 pm:  Old Navy (then reopening at 7pm for 29 hours straight)
• 5:00 pm:  Toys 'R' Us
• 6:00 pm:  Best Buy, Walmart
• 8:00 pm:  Kohl's, Target, Macy's, JC Penney, Northlake Mall, Concord Mills Mall

 
You can strategically plan your day of shopping, eating and napping!  While most stores are offering great deals on electronics, clothes, toys - do your homework.  Sometimes prices drop closer to Christmas, even lower than Black Friday prices.  Also, remember to be safe.  Never keep your purchases visible in your car, keep them locked in your trunk.  It is easy to get caught-up with the frenzy of the holiday, but keeping yourself safe is most important.
Throughout the week, The Charlotte Observer is updating its Black Friday Central page - to ensure shoppers are aware of the best deals.
