Archived Does anybody know the holiday store hours for this year yet? Any leak, rumor anything?

[Joel]

Last year if I remember correctly my store started opening at 7am since early November till the second week of January this year and also closing as late as 12am. In previous years they would do that, but only the week before Christmas I think. My TL said that having those hours last year wasn't very useful and a waste.

Has anybody heard anything yet?

My bet is 6pm. Stl’s will know 2 weeks before then. I did see the BF guides at tsc.

My guess is same as last year. Not having us be opened all night was so smart and idk why other stores don’t follow suit

Hopefully we keep the whole "not be opened all night" thing again.

That said, 2am-4am Target was lit with the other TMs.

My only issue with the not being open all night (which will hopefully be resolved since it won’t be our first year doing this and everyone should know) was we could not get guests out of the store at 12. We made the hour, 45 min, 30 min, 15 min, 10 min, and 5 min closing announcements and we still have guests in line until 12:30.

There’s a good chance it just annoyed me so much because I was scheduled until 10:30 and regretfully agreed to close the service desk and didn’t get to clock out until well after 1 am.
