The retail giant has said it will start sales events at 8 p.m. Thanksgiving Day.
For traditionalists, it may be an unwelcome encroachment on a holiday normally focused on family, but for shopping enthusiasts it's all in good fun. Walmart has announced that it will begin running "Black Friday" sales at 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, the earliest time yet as the shopping holiday increasingly becomes "Black Thursday."

Ballwin writer Jimmy Feeney shares what he and his family are thankful for this Thanksgiving
Beyond the Dinner Table, pt. 1 It's that time of year again when pro football will fill my television and I get ready to enjoy some turkey with my old pals Charlie Brown and Snoopy. That's right. It's Thanksgiving in Ballwin for my family and I, the time for watching the Cowboys play the Lions, stuffing turkeys, and, well, getting stuffed yourself. Which relatives are coming over, who's bringing the pumpkin pie and whether your uncle will break out those awful-smelling cigars … those are just extra ingredients that may give a different flavor to the holiday experience. Thanksgiving is all of those things and more, but it is really is a time for reflecting on the many great things in all of our lives. Although many of our blessings are …
