2013 Black Friday Opening Times: JCPenney, Kohl's Say They'll Open Thanksgiving Night

Well, Black Friday shoppers are going to be mixing up their schedules this year -- in addition to Macy's changing their start time to 8pm Thanksgiving night, now both Kohl's and JCPenney say they will open at 8pm.

It will now be a huge surprise if ANY national chains actually wait to start their Black Friday sales on Black Friday -- JCPenney and Kohl's were the last two major holdouts to the Thanksgiving start time.

However, even though JCPenney is opening so early, they apparently won't be giving away their free Disney snowglobes until 4am on Black Friday itself -- which may help you place them differently into your shopping list.

If you're a regular Black Friday shopper, how will you plan out your shopping strategy if all the major stores are open on Thanksgiving night?  We can pretty much guarantee that Toys R Us and Walmart will also be open by 9pm at the latest, since both chains have begun their sales on Thanksgiving in years past.

While we haven't heard what Target and Best Buy plan to do yet, something tells me they won't want to be left behind in the rush for the early sale shoppers either.
