Village Toy Shop to Keep Black Friday Start Time

Unlike other establishments in the area, the local shop will not move its sale from its 7 a.m. start time the day after Thanksgiving.

While some businesses have attempted to push back their Black Friday openings this upcoming holiday, one local shop in Easton is chosing not to. The Village Toy Shop, located at the corner of Washington Street and Main Street in Easton and also at Cobb's Corner in Canton, will keep its 7 a.m. opening on Friday, Nov. 23. "When we started our Black Friday sale about 10 years ago, we thought we were catching early shoppers," Kathy Mabry of the Village Toy Shop said in an email to Patch. "Now it seems we will be catching shoppers as they come home from an all-night shopping spree."
