When do stores open on Black Friday? Holiday hours for Walmart, Target, Best Buy and more

There’s nothing wrong with doing all your Black Friday shopping online, but many still enjoy the rush to score a good deal in person. To make the most of this year’s offers in stores, you need to know when they open their doors. That’s why we’ve broken down the Black Friday hours for all the major retailers offering discounts this year.
Please note that opening hours may vary at individual locations, so be sure to check with your local branch before setting up camp on Thursday evening.

Keep in mind that Black Friday in-store shopping is known for its high-octane (okay, chaotic) energy: frantic shoppers, long lines, and the excitement of knowing you just scored a great discount. Some people even camp outside overnight to get deals on things like TVs and iPads. Of course, this does not apply to everyone. And with many retailers offering the same deals online, it’s worth considering whether you’re better off buying online or in store.

If you happen to be looking for a specific product, chances are you don’t have to shop in person to pick it up on sale. We’ve rounded up some of the season’s absolute best online deals across a range of categories, retailers and price ranges.
