Brave enough to go shopping on Black Friday? Here is when your favorite big box stores will be open.
As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, many people are not only figuring out their dinner menu for turkey day, but also a game plan for Black Friday shopping.
Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is widely considered the best shopping day of the year for consumers. While the “shopping holiday” hasn’t always been known for its generous discounts and mobs of shoppers, it has evolved into a day people mark on their calendars before purchasing electronics, toys, and more.
In previous years, the shopping holiday has spilled into Thanksgiving, with many large retailers opening their doors the day before Black Friday. Thankfully, the big box stores have since revised their plans and have closed so their employees can enjoy the turkey holiday.
Here’s what you need to know about when big box stores in Pennsylvania are open on Black Friday.
