will open at MIDNIGHT on Black Friday! That's great news for some of you who camp out all night -- maybe.
It could also mean you'll have to leave Thanksgiving dinner earlier.
Here's an excerpt:
Best Buy will usher in Black Friday by opening at midnight Thanksgiving, its CEO said Friday, but he's not happy about the race to unlock retail store doors ever earlier.
"I feel terrible because it impacts," chief executive officer Brian Dunn said. "It'll change some Thanksgiving plans for some of our employees.
The consumer electronics giant originally had other Black Friday plans.
"We were going to be open at much more civilized hour, like 3 or 4 (a.m.)," Dunn told a Business for Social Responsibility conference. But after Target, Macy's, Kohl's and other major retailers announced they'd open at midnight, "We made a decision at Best Buy that we need to be where our customers are," Dunn said.
"I know that the decision has been a bit controversial with some of our folks. But the truth of the matter is, the customers will be out there, lined up, for that midnight opening."
