hoits2000 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Good, lets go back to Black Friday like it used to be, opening early Friday morning. I loved the tradition of waiting all night. I wasn't feeling the last two years when places like walmart took all the fun out of it and Thanksgiving by having deals right in the middle of Thanksgiving dinner time. I don't really mind the midnight openings though. Edited October 24, 2015 by hoits2000 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myboysnme Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 The Dell laptop is usually midnight on Thanksgiving. Wasn't it like 2 or 3 AM sometimes in the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackFrdayVet Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I really hope they go back to more of a traditional Black Friday opening. 5 AM is my ideal time. Even the midnight opening was a push. I really want to go back to the 5 am time opening and shop till 10 AM - noon and go home and take a nap lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyva247 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I want the Thursday openings. After dinner we like to go to the store and work off the meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colemandawn4905 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I like Thursday openings however they should be later so employees can enjoy time with their families. I don't mind waiting till midnight actually shopping earlier is a rush. I wouldn't even mind waiting till the friday morning like it use to be. Made alot of friends along the way camping out at walmart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakee05 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I hope they go back to the traditional 5am openings or at least midnight or 1am. There are way too many spectators and socializers now. I have seen people bring their whole family with them including the elderly and only one person is there to shop. It makes the stores too congested now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesusluvu Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I hope they go back as well. There be so many people just spectating and not buying. It is already crowded enough. People want get out early in the morning unless they mean business . I really don't mine them even coming out but dont take the tickets or pick up stuff just to hide it later or never buy it at all. But yea I believe in family time as well and if they open to early I will miss out on some sells unless I can get it online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen08 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I am also jumping on the "hoping they go back to opening Friday morning". And yes, I know I contradict myself by saying this, but as much as I hate going out on thanksgiving night and also all those employees that have to leave their family gatherings to go to work, I am also at those store shopping on Thursday night. Its a love hate relationship. LOL!!! But in all seriousness, I would be happy if all the stores went back to opening on Friday morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

min0812 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I also hope for the stores to open on Black Friday instead of Thursday but unfortunately, stores will continue to open earlier if the customers are there to spend money. But I have to say, it was nice shopping at JC Penny last year @ 3am and have like 20 people in the store since the store opened Thursday night and did not close.

morningshopper Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I, as well as others, Wish they would go back to Friday hrs, instead of being open on Thanksgiving Thursday! it was a tradition in our family to enjoy Thanksgiving and our wonderful feast, then the guys would relax on the couch, watch the game and us girls would gather at the table reading the ad papers, make our list and set forth a plan.Now it's hard to even enjoy Thanksgiving dinner and/ or worry about getting to the store to get in line (or not eat at all with the family, just to make sure your kids get what they want for Christmas, especially if it's a HOT item!)

dkroen Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I miss Black Friday I hate the change to brown Thursday it has ruined the traditions and fun for me and my family - I don't want to loose Thanksgiving just for a great deal what happened to celebrating things we are thankful for as a family first - makes me very sad as I have loved Black Friday for years [emoji22] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doresia Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 We have always done Thanksgiving dinner fairly early so starting on Thursday doesn't cut into Thanksgiving too much for us. What I miss is any amount of sleep i used to get. Used to be get up early to get ready for dinner, eat dinner, go through ads and make a plan then go to bed and get up early to shop. Now its get up early to get ready for dinner, eat dinner, go through ads and make a plan then go shopping through midnight then out again early Friday to get in line for early Friday sales then hide everything then wake kids and go to breakfast. Whew, sleepy just thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuntJamelle Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Meijer is starting their big sale at 6AM on Thursday this year - I think that is the earliest of any of the stores I've seen so far!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bribri25 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Is anyone talented enough to put this on a spreadsheet? I am excel challenged. How would you like it formatted? Like a timeline where the opening time is horizontal across the screen? What are you trying to benefit from being in Excel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wittenlover Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Meijer is starting their big sale at 6AM on Thursday this year - I think that is the earliest of any of the stores I've seen so far!?! FYI - Meijer has done a Thursday morning sale for the last several years now. This isn't new. I've taken advantage of the "buy one pair, get one for $1" Thursday shoe sale a few times.

arci122 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 List is updated! Few..... I added all stores even though some are unique to areas. Will keep updating. Best option for a paper copy is to cut and paste and take out stores you don't need. We are only 9 days away!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonesy Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Thank you for the lists of when stores are opening, but for the ones opening on Thursday, is there a list of when they close and open again? Like Kohl s is open on Thursday at 6:00pm but I think they are closing at 1:00 am on Friday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wittenlover Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Thank you for the lists of when stores are opening, but for the ones opening on Thursday, is there a list of when they close and open again? Like Kohl s is open on Thursday at 6:00pm but I think they are closing at 1:00 am on Friday? You'll note many of the Friday times are listed as "Re-open". I don't recall seeing anything about a closure anywhere in the Kohl's ad. (Someone feel free to point it out if I happened to overlook it!) ETA: It might be helpful for those planning if closing times could be added for those stores that are closing during the night, but not sure how feasible that is.

B&H Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I am more excited to see that there are quite a few more retailers offering their black friday items online this year. I think they will not only have more in sales, but more people will be able to get to spend time with their families on Thanksgiving Day instead of worrying about rushing out to the stores. I know how thankful I am to be able to shop in my PJ's in my warm bed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
