    The parks will be busy, but not to bad.

    Manic is the word I would use to describe the shops the next day, Black Friday, when the massive sales start.

    Take plenty of credit cards, massive bargains to be had. Get up early too as the stores will be busy.
    Regards, Mark

    We are normally there over Thanksgiving every year and the parks might be a little more full but it's not bad. Thanksgiving is really only the Thursday but most people tag on the Friday for a four day holiday.

    All the big sales will start around 6:00am on the Friday morning. However Thanksgiving is really a 'going home' holiday and many people travel over that four day period so it's as well to avoid it if possible.

    If you plan to eat out that day then try to book well in advance as on the day you will stand little chance of finding anywhere open that has spare places.

    Most of the outlets open at midnight now and from last years experience are very busy up until 2-3am (especially Premium). We managed to stay in the shops until 8am and got some top bargains.
