I just checked the press sites for BB, T and WM and none of them have any posting about BF. BTS just started so I would not expect anything until after labor day to middle of Sept. Last year BB made the choice last minute to open at midnight.

The only place I could find it being reported for 2012 was from Examiner.com

As far as Walmart, I agree with pp...I can't imagine them going back to midnight "opening" (even tho I wish they would), when last year they started earlier (disaster, imo)

I was pleasantly surprised last year when the newer Walmart which is not 24hours stuck to a 6am opening time(something about stripmall hrs of operation). I know for this year I'll be scoping them out for signs advising more of the same. It really worked out well for me last year buying most stuff online then hitting sears and macy's in mall early and then stopping by and waiting for that Walmart to open.

I am not crazy with the stores opening on Thanksgiving night but I can deal with the midnight openings. I may be in the minority here but I do prefer the 4 am openings better.

I am with you. The 4am openings are much better. Not as many people out

In my State,we have the Blue Laws so my Walmart doesn't open as early as others. Last year Walmart opened at 4am and Target at 1am I believe.

I don't know how much weight I'd put into that article. I believe almost anyone can submit articles for that site. I really doubt all those stores have announced plans so early.

I can deal with the midnight openings. I don't want to do the 8pm thing anymore. Last year was a mess. There wa more fights and just kind of killed the right of passage that everyone should experience.

I wish they would do the early morning openings again, my DH and I would make a day of it. I don't like being out that late in Las Vegas--but I WILL do what I have to do! LOL

I, too, wish it would go back to they way it used to be...I mean, I did (still do) go to Kmart on TG and pick up a few of their TG deals for the day.. I would go in the morning (pick up my paper while I was out, even tho I already knew what would be on sale thanks to GD lol) and come back and enjoy my whole TG day with my family, eating, chatting, laughing, looking thru the paper. I loved not having to get up until about 230, 3 am to head to the stores to shop. Now, it's just crazy!!!

I to wish they would go back to opening later. I wnt do the whole up all night this year. The last 2 years I've done and have gotten dog sick from nor getting any sleep. I guess I just can't hang and I'm only 31!!!
