The store will remain open till 8:30 p.m. The code was actually meant to be as negative as it sounds – cops hated working Black Friday, because of the insane crowds / increased traffic.

We’re already seeing thousands of consumers rush to stores in an attempt to get their hands on Black Friday items. Next on the list is video games – just the software – discounted about 22 percent, and toys, also 22 percent.
