This Is What Is Open Or Closed Today For Black Friday

If you're someone who chooses to actually go to the outside world on Black Friday rather than sit around with family and eat left overs, you may want to be filled in on what is open and what is CLOSED today, so you don't try to hit up somewhere and waste some precious time.

Banks - most large banks are open on Black Friday because it is not a federal holiday, with normal operating hours. Rejoice! More cash for more gifts!

The Post Office - yep! Again, not a federal holiday so the post office will be open to receive and send mail as a normal day.

The Stock Market - it is open, but the hours are limited. The New York Stock Exchange will close markets at 1pm EST. And Nasdaq is closed on Thanksgiving and has a 1pm close on Black Friday as well.

Stores - as you know, most stores relish in Black Friday shoppers and even open on Thanksgiving night. But there are some stores to take note of that have chosen to remain closed! REI has made a point to stay closed on Black Friday in addition to Thanksgiving in order to give the employees time off with their families - which is what the season is all about. 

Happy shopping, everyone!
