Thanksgiving Day Shopping



I will not be part of the minions that feel the need to go out shopping on Turkey Day or "Black" Friday. but for those of you who will be visiting the Houston area and  plan on being part of the madness here is a bit of info:

Galleria will be open for business on Thanksgiving


HOUSTON - While thousands of shoppers across the Houston area are gearing up for Black Friday deals, the Galleria is trying to target people with new holiday hours.

For the first time, the Galleria will open on Thanksgiving day at 6 .p.m and close at 1 a.m., then open again on Black Friday at 6 a.m.

Some shoppers say they will take advantage of the hours but others say it's just not needed.

"I think we really just need to draw the line," Mary Barnidge said. "To me, Thanksgiving is one of the very special American holidays and I really wish people would observe it and enjoy it and then start like crazy the next morning, whatever time they want to start."

Meanwhile, Galleria managers say it is opening on Thanksgiving night because of customer demand.

"We are offering extra holiday hours to meet our customers' needs," officials with the Galleria said.

Even though the Galleria will be open, every store may not be. We are told individual store managers will decided its store will be open or not.
