One of my customers is a large electronics and appliances retailer and they do an unbelievable amount of business on Black Friday. Along with everyone else they started to encroach earlier than midnight and now it starts at 6:00PM on Thanksgiving Day. I think that's rather sad as Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and was a great reason to have everything shutdown and for people to stay home or with friends. That's in the past now.
