When it comes to Black Friday shopping, aside from having that list, it's likewise important to know which store to buy them and at what time.
That's why we've compiled below the list of Black Friday 2012 store opening hours to guide you with your route and schedule.
These are the major in-store retailers and their opening time for the biggest shopping weekend of the year. We encourage you to take note of stores which are opening as early as Thanksgiving, and the Black Friday doorbuster sales times as well.
We will update this list as the days come, and please be reminded that these schedule could change so it's always better to confirm with your local store to make sure you won't miss their Black Friday 2012 deals.
