One chain bucking the trend, however, is Macy's. Several locations have announced they will open earlier this Thanksgiving.

The shopping mall staple will open its doors at 5pm, an hour earlier than in 2014 and 2015, according to BestBlackFriday.com.

Meantime, Mall of America and a variety of stores say they'll be closed on Thanksgiving.
