Happy Turkey day!

80% of Americans Plan to Shop on Thanksgiving Day: As an increasing number of retailers are now offering Black Friday deals on Thanksgiving, many Americans are taking advantage. This year, most holiday deal seekers plan to begin shopping either before or on Thanksgiving Day.

Thanksgiving Hours for 50 Retailers: The majority of stores will not be open on Thanksgiving Day. However, a surprising share of the country’s largest shopping malls will be open for business.

11 Stores Open on Thanksgiving: 24/7 Wall St. compiled a list of the 11 largest retailers that will open their doors to deal seekers on Thanksgiving. Some of the biggest names in retail, including Macy’s and Target are among them.

9 Stores Closed on Thanksgiving: Many major retailers rely heavily on holiday sales to meet annual sales goals. Still, some stores will observe the Thanksgiving holiday by remaining closed.
