The annual kick-off to the season always seems to fall on Thanksgiving. Many Americans are gearing up for the biggest shopping day of the year the day following the annual feast. Black Friday has become a sight to be seen, as people resort to a combat style of shopping.

The Black Friday craze and retailers offering "doorbuster deals," has gotten so huge that it began bleeding into the Thanksgiving holiday.

Ever since the pandemic in 2020, retailers began noticing that more and more people are shopping online. Proving that they do not need to remain open on Thanksgiving and still make sales. Not to mention, they do not need to schedule staffing on the family holiday. Instead, retailers are choosing to close their doors on Thanksgiving and save all their energy for the BIG Black Friday shopping extravaganza.
