Put down the popover ingredient list. Black Friday is just around the corner now with early sales popping up at Best Buy and the like already.

For many, Black Friday still means to rise early and hit the aisles to shake free of your turkey-induced slumber in search of deals, deals, deals. Some even line up early for first dibs on the exercise. Your “@richbff” Vivian Tu can help with expertise on what’s actually is worth and how to get bang for your buck . But this list is strictly just about what’s open, and right before the gift giving season kicks in. It’s typically a one day deal, but for some stores on this list, Black Friday is observed for multiple days for a longer window while supplies last. Very few start before the big day though. We called around to confirm each business’s plans, but you should still call your local store once you know it will be open to confirm when the doors open.

Here’s a full list of what’s open (most of everything) in the case of the most popular stores, many of which are closed on Thanksgiving Day. Pro tip from Vivian Tu: stick with items you’ve wanted for a long time. Good luck out there.
