About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

A midnight opening robs the hourly and in-store salary workers of time off with their families on Thanksgiving Day.  By opening the doors at midnight, Best Buy is requiring team members to be in the store late on Thanksgiving Day. A full holiday with family is not just for the elite of this nation -- all Americans should be able to break bread with loved ones and get a good night's rest on Thanksgiving!

Join me in calling Best Buy retail stores to push back their original opening time of 5am on Black Friday.

I do not speak on behalf of the group. The reason people are signing this may differ from anything I have stated, the fact remains that the people are not happy.

Thank you to Anthony Hardwick for allowing me to use is wording. He started the Target petition.

Push back the opening of Best Buy retail stores on Black Friday to 5am

Greetings,

I am concerned with Best Buy's decision to open its stores at midnight on Thanksgiving.

A midnight opening robs the hourly and in-store salary workers of time off with their families on Thanksgiving Day.  By opening the doors at midnight, Best Buy is requiring team members to be in the store late on Thanksgiving Day. A full holiday with family is not just for the elite of this nation -- all Americans should be able to break bread with loved ones and get a good night's rest on Thanksgiving!

Will you save Thanksgiving and push back your opening time to 5am on Black Friday?

Sincerely,

[Your name]
