Intreped94 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Has anyone else heard that KB Toys and 14 other retailers will open at midnight? I just caught the later part of the broadcast. Man if that's the case we're going to have to take naps after Thanksgiving dinner. By the way I'm in Michigan if that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindabacker Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Wow, that would be wonderfull as long as BB and CC didnt open til 5. I am all for them staggering their opening times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mldepalma Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 no I haven't heard that, but if anyone hears more about it, please let us know. That would be crazy... I wonder how it would affect those planning on getting in line at BB or CC at 12:00am or sometime thereabout. Or how it would affect people who weren't planning on gettin gin line until 4:00.... they might have to go earlier to get a spot.... oh geez, if this happens, I'm gonna have to rethink my whole strategy.....

phrogxix Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Ugh, I sure hope not. That really would cut into dinner, etc. just so I could beat the people with nothing but time on their hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlm2121 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 it would be really great if best buy and/or circuit city would open a few hours b4 walmart so i could shop both of them and then head to wally world - i know last year sears opened at 4 am which was pretty convenient and it thinned out some of the wal mart shoppers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phrogxix Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Staggered openings on the morning? Yeah, that'd be nice. I doubt they'll ever do it though for obvious reasons. But midnight? Please no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peachysquirt21 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I watched my news & they mentioned the Albertville Malls are gonna be doing this. Half of the stores are. I didnt hear any mention of KB Toys store or other retailer stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guilliam Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I hope they don't do this in Ohio:no: We live in a small town and only have Wal-Mart. SO we usually go there first then drive 45 minutes to the next town to go to Sears, Target, K-Mart, KB, etc. So that would be awful for us!! And I don't want to go to their Wal-Mart because we always get what we want @ ours because it is a small town;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

readerof3 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 That would be soo cool. I hope that Kmart opens at Midnight. Its the only way I would be able to get the tv thats for 70 dollars. Unless they have that for the Thanksgiving sale. I can go shopping before my husband goes to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortness Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Although we don't have a KBToys around here, I'm happy to hear of a midnight opening. I'm a LATE person, and those hourse work for me much more than early morning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peachysquirt21 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I am curious is let's say Best Buy decides to open at midnight this year, What I would like to know is what are the people who camp out gonna do? I would think that if you wanna get the hot ticket items, your gonna have to be at BB Thursday morning the latest. That would suck IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShopQueen Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 So what other stores besides KB will have the earlier opening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christy Garner Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I hope we get the final news soon. I want to know which other stores and where - I think midnight would be good for me as I could rethink my game plan and get more shopping done.

fairydustcrissy Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 KB has opened earlier than most before. For a long time they opened at 5am,m and a couple of years they opened at 3am. I am pretty sure they have opened at midnight before as well. I suggest checking with your local mall, as that would more than likely determine the opening time. Here for instance, the mall opens at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_Man Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 We just got a KB outlet store in the tourist shopping thing here. It's a boardwalk that's along the river. It actually has more than the regular KB stores. With all the stores down at the boardwalk, I'm wondering what they'll do. Having that does help some of the overflow of people.

comm402 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I'm kind of torn, a midnight opening would be nice on any day except one where I've been up since 5 a.m. cooking. On the other hand, I'm not really a morning person and I do hate having to choose which store to hit first, so... See ! I can't make up my mind.
