I haven't seen this year's ad yet, but Target is the only major store that I know of that does not run the normal 5am-9am sale. They have the same price both Friday and Saturday. The only downside to that is they still run out of things quickly, and often do not re-stock.

All my life, I have been utterly astounded by people who will go to the extremes that "Black Friday" seems to encourage.
As a result, I was not really surprised to learn about the Wal-Mart employee who was trampled to death last "Black Friday". (Yeah... I'd say it was a pretty black day for his family...)
Personally, I'd have to say that the worst part of the Christmas season is the fact that so many people seem to lost their minds in the stores. I hate the insanity. Huge crowds, pushing and shoving, most everybody is rude, and are willing to steal things out of my cart if I happen to have picked up the last one of something... (That has happened twice, over the years...)
It's truly a shame that so many have forgotten what Christmas is really about, and have fallen for the materialistic 'Reason for the Season'...
So, as a rule, the Friday after Thanksgiving is spent doing anything BUT shopping, and will remain so as long as I am alive...

But if I had the day off, I would be staying far away from the stores. Shopping online would be a possibility.
