It is that time of year again where an estimated 99.8 million people will intend to go shopping at some of the biggest retail stores and shop. Some might even camp outside their favorite stores and wait for them to open to get the biggest and best deals fromIMG_7926 electronics, home goods, clothing, and many more items for the upcoming holiday,Black Friday. However, just like cyber Monday, some stores are starting their sales the day before and more retailers are extending their sale time.

According to CNBC,”Amazon, the world’s largest online retailer announced Tuesday it will extend it’s holidays savings for an additional eight straight days of new deals.” Amazon says, “New price cuts will be added every five minutes as a ‘celebration’ of cyber Monday.”

Other stores like Walmart will also start their online deals Sunday, November 29.

“Black Fridays should start on Friday. There’s no need to start the sales a whole day ahead because if you start the night before, you are taking time away that could be better spent with family,” Junior Sabrina Chaves said.

Despite the disagreements about Black Friday starting on Thanksgiving, many stores will start Black Friday sales earlier and longer.
