Where to shop on Black Friday in NYC
Get ready for Black Friday—NYC’s shopping season starts as soon as you finish that last bite of Thanksgiving turkey
First comes Thanksgiving, then comes Black Friday, NYC’s biggest shopping day of the year. You’ve watched the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, stuffed your face with turkey—the only thing left to do this holiday weekend? Shop. You can assume most stores will have COVID-19 safety protocols in place this year, such as limiting how many people will be allowed in the building at once and requiring masks, but there will be loads of shopping. Those of us willing to brave the early hours for a shopping bonanza, look to these stores to plan out your Black Friday.

Apple fans get ready, while 2020 Black Friday has not been announced yet, for the last two years in a row now, Apple has extended their one-day Black Friday sale beyond Friday-only. That means all Thanksgiving weekend long both in-stores and online locales have super sales starting early in the morning on Black Friday and ending in the evening on Cyber Monday.
Macy's Herald Square

But, Target will also let you shop Black Friday sales for the weeks leading up to the day after Thanksgiving. You'll find deals in a variety of categories such as home, apparel and accessories, and electronics. Target releases the following week’s deal prices every Thursday through the end of November so shoppers can plan.
Saks Off Fifth
What's better than high fashion at low prices? Not much, of course. Enter Saks Off Fifth. Doors are open for you to take advantage of Black Friday deals which, last year looked like 50% off the entire store of designer brands.
Michaels
If the holiday season brings out your creative side, head to Michaels to stock up on supplies and decor. You can load up on glitter glue and beyond as deals will begin the day before Thanksgiving, and last through November 28 (but the retailer will close on Thanksgiving Day this year).
Uniqlo
Uniqlo knows a thing or two about warm winter gear. You can stock up on garments for the whole family with sweet discounts. For the past two years, Uniqlo has celebrated Black Friday for the entire week of Thanksgiving, so you probably won't have to miss your morning sleep on Friday.
