Happy Thanksgiving...er, I mean, Happy Early Black Friday

Retailers open even earlier this Thanksgiving.

Hi everyone. Happy Thanksgiving. By now, most of you are starting (or maybe finishing) Thanksgiving dinner. After that, it's time (for better or for worse) to hit the stores for Black Friday shopping.

I'll be speaking to Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel in Bloomington before Target opens its doors at 9 p.m. And then off to Best Buy in Eden Prairie at 10 p.m. to try something different this year. Best Buy doesn't open until midnight but I will be shadowing the store's manager to get a first hand look at how employees prep, manage, and survive the craziest shopping day of the year.

Stay tuned to this blog for the latest updates. If you don't see anything, send in the Marines. They might need to peel me off the wall once retailers open their doors.
