I've never been a huge black Friday shopper because the whole idea of hip checking an old lady out of the way for a cheap flat screen TV gives me anxiety.

But I know folks camp out to be the first one in the store and many stores open early on Thanksgiving Day to get a jump start on Black Friday sales.

Well these stores have decided to not partake this year. According to WMUR, these 57 stores have announced that they will be closed all day for the Thanksgiving Holiday.
