Eyeing holiday sales, more U.S. retailers to open on Thanksgiving

Macy’s Inc and a slew of other U.S. outlets are opening on Thanksgiving for the primary time ever in a naked-knuckled brawl for a bigger slice of general vacation gross sales. Department store competitors Kohl’s Corp and J.C. Penney Co Inc led a string of Thanksgiving opening announcements after Macy’s stated it might open its U.S. outlets on the favored vacation, ending a 155-12 months custom. Sales traits, survey outcomes and an internet “Save Thanksgiving” backlash counsel that shoppers could face up to the urge to splurge on the favored holiday. However with six fewer procuring days this year than in 2012, retailers who get virtually half of annual income all over iciness vacation season are nibbling away at Thanksgiving.
