Black Friday: When Do Big Stores Open?

USAFri Nov 28 2025
Black Friday is a big deal for many shoppers. It's the day after Thanksgiving when lots of stores offer big discounts. People often think this is the best time to buy expensive items, seasonal goods, and trendy products. But is it really the best time to shop? Some experts say that deep discounts happen all year round. They advise shoppers to do their homework. Check prices online, compare deals, and read the fine print. This way, you can make sure you're getting a good deal on what you really want. But let's be real. Some people love the excitement of shopping in person. They enjoy the holiday atmosphere, the music, and the buzz at the mall. Stores know this and offer exclusive deals to attract shoppers. Many stores that were closed on Thanksgiving open early on Black Friday to kick off the holiday shopping season. So, when do these big stores open? Best Buy, Dick's Sporting Goods, Home Depot, Lowe's, Macy's, and Target all open at 6 a. m. JCPenney and Kohl's open even earlier at 5 a. m. Costco opens at 9 a. m. , and Sam's Club keeps its regular hours. Walmart's hours vary by location, so it's best to check their website. But before you rush out, think about this: Is Black Friday really the best time to shop? Or are there better deals out there? It's always good to do your research and make sure you're getting the best bang for your buck.
