In recent years, many major retailers have opened their doors on Thanksgiving with early Black Friday deals. While shopaholics love it, many feel it's in bad taste and that employees should be able to spend that day with family.

This year, dozens of companies have announced that their stores will not be open on Turkey Day. Bellow is the official list courtesy of BestBlackFriday.com. (Note: HEB stores will be open at 6 AM, but close early at 2 PM so employees can be home in time for dinner.)
