Is a $7.99 memory foam shower rug and a $9.99 waffle maker enough to make you want to leave your family on Thanksgiving?

Macy's announced it would open at 8 p.m. Thanksgiving evening to get a headstart on the Black Friday crowd.  Last week, we posted a question on Facebook asking what your thoughts were about stores opening on Thanksgiving.  There were no positive comments.  Most people said "If stores are open, those employees can't be at home with their family on Thanksgiving."

Macy's isn't the only store opening it's doors for early bird shoppers. Most Kohl's and JC Penney stores will open on Thanksgiving, too.  Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Toys R Us and K-mart are expected to make announcements soon.
