Hi!You need:• Pencil/pen• Journal

Journal 12/1/14:“Hundreds of doorbusters & 1000s of deals!” proclaims a tweet from Target. Is anyone listening to these Black Friday promises of bountiful discounts and a bevy of items to gift for the holidays? Perhaps not. Stores are currently engaged in a heated battle of one-upmanship (Target opens at 6p.m. on Thanksgiving while stores such as Big Lots are staying open all day beginning at 7 a.m.) before the last forkful of turkey has been consumed. Others are being forced to follow suit whether they like it or not. Small retailers at a mall in Buffalo, New York need to open their doors by 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day (a full six hours before the traditional midnight madness) or potentially get fined by the mall’s owners. But a recent survey from RetailMeNot with The Omnibus Company revealed that all that may be for naught.

D, C, Q: Retailers should refrain from opening their stores on Thanksgiving Day.
