Best Buy is once again kicking off this year's holiday shopping season early.
The retailer is throwing open its doors at 5 p.m. on Thanksgiving. It will then close at 1 a.m. and reopen at 8 a.m. on Black Friday. These hours mirror last year's.
Some local laws interfere with these plans. Maine, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island stores will remain closed on Thanksgiving. Maine stores will open at 12:01 a.m., while Massachusetts and Rhode Island won't open stores until 1 a.m.
A preview of the sale is now on Best Buy's website. Some deals, like the 50-inch Sharp 4K TV offered as a Thanksgiving doorbuster at $179.99 - $320 off the regular price - will only be available in-store.
In conjunction with its announcement, some Black Friday deals are already available on Bestbuy.com, like $50 off the Apple Watch Series 1 or $300 off the KitchenAid Stand Mixer Pro.
Best Buy is offering free shipping for the holiday season.
