FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 18, 2010 // PRNewswire // -- Black Friday will be "Shack Friday" at RadioShack®, but you don't need to wait another week for great prices. RadioShack announced today that select deals will start five days earlier online and in stores at more than 4,600 store locations nationwide to help customers in their quest to become "Holiday Heroes."
The holiday season can be a time of increased stress as already busy schedules are pushed to the limit. For many, the thought of waking up early to hit the stores before sunrise on "Black Friday" adds additional pressure. This year, instead of spending the early hours of Nov. 26 fighting the rush, let The Shack help with your gift list by offering early deals on select items between Sunday, Nov. 21, and Wednesday, Nov. 24.
"No matter who you are shopping for, The Shack has a product, price and nearby location to purchase the gift that will make you a hero," said Scott Young, executive vice president and chief merchandising officer for RadioShack Corp. "By offering hot prices ahead of Shack Friday, we have tried to ease the frustration of holiday shopping this season."
