Kohl’s, Staples and Newegg are joining the ever-growing list of retailers offering extended omnichannel Black Friday promotions.
Retailers including Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and Old Navy have all expanded the length and assortment of their Black Friday holiday sales events. Now Kohl’s, which recently unveiled its 2020 holiday ad, is kicking off Black Friday on Friday, Nov. 6 with a preview event.
Kohl’s Black Friday preview features 100 one-day online and in-store deals at 20% discount.
