True Value

BestBlackFriday.com reports that according to its survey, 72% of consumers believe stores should be closed on Thanksgiving. The survey went on to say consumers would rather spend Thanksgiving at home than out in traffic and shopping among strangers. And with most retailers offering shopping online, even on Thanksgiving Day, consumers can shop and not feel compelled to shop in stores for the same deals.
