Thanksgiving is all about reuniting with family, friends and being grateful. But if you’re one of those who’d like to indulge in the tradition of shopping after your meal — you’re in for a treat.

Several major retail stores and a few malls in Metro Detroit will open early for a few hours during Thanksgiving evening, before Friday when the clock hits midnight.

If you need to head to the stores to start or finish gift shopping early, some of these malls might be a good place to head to.
