Walmart on Wednesday released a 2-page preview of its Black Friday ad and announced that it will open stores at 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day.
The release of the ad was first reported by BfAds.net, which included a link to a news release dated Thursday, Nov. 12.
In the release, the retailer said the majority of its Black Friday deals will be available on Walmart.com – including many of the top items such as televisions, video game consoles and small home appliances – beginning at 12:01 a.m. PT on Thanksgiving morning.
