BLACK FRIDAY ON THANKSGIVING!?

It seemed like all weekend I was getting email after email with Black Friday deals. I kept thinking to myself. WHY? We're not there yet or are we?They typically wait another week before they send these deals out but it turns out that the shopping season is shorter this year and retailers only have 26 days to make their money this year. I get it but was shocked to learn that so many stores are now open and offering Black Friday deals on Thanksgiving! Here's the list just in case you can't wait to get your shopping started.
