Best Buy (Richfield, Minn.) has announced its plans to close its locations for the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday this November, according to CNBC. This will be the second year in a row Best Buy is planning to offer the majority of its Black Friday deals online as well, though it hasn’t yet unveiled its store hours for the annual post-Thanksgiving shopping event.

Best Buy joins other retailers like Walmart (Bentonville, Ark.) and Target (Minneapolis) in its Thanksgiving closure plans. Though the retailer hasn’t yet said what its Black Friday hours will be, it did confirm it would be fulfilling orders via online ordering/shipping and curbside pick-up.
