Consider this your Black Friday heads up! Macy’s and Target doors will open at midnight for post-Thanksgiving-dinner savings and exclusive offers! Expect other stores to follow suit!

Macy’s will offer sales and, for the first time, midnight store openings across the country (12 a.m. Friday, Nov. 25; the midnight of Thanksgiving night) to kick off the 2011 holiday shopping season.

“Macy’s Black Friday specials offer customers extraordinary savings on this season’s most sought-after gifts,” said Terry Lundgren, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Macy’s, Inc. “This year, in response to our customers’ eagerness to shop early for great deals, Macy’s stores across the country will open for the first time at midnight following Thanksgiving, giving customers the opportunity to get a head start on our extraordinary Black Friday deals.”

Target is also jumping on the midnight train! It will launch its Black Friday sales earlier this year, opening its stores at midnight on Nov. 25.

In previous years, Target opened for the post-Thanksgiving retail blitz at 4 a.m.

Target will allow only a few dozen people into the store every 20 seconds or so. The store is also adding crowd-management workers and offering store maps to shoppers so they know where they want to go.

The goal is to avoid a stampede like one that happened at a New York Walmart in 2008, when a worker was trampled by shoppers.

Happy Shopping!

Will you be there at midnight?
