I am inclined to avoid the stores which are opening on Thanksgiving this year. I don't do Black Friday; haven't since college when that was basically my only opportunity to do Christmas shopping. It didn't seem as bad *ahem* years ago.
If you can (and I hope to try) shop Small Business Saturday on the 26th; help out local businesses rather than big chains. There are heaps of shops in downtown Peekskill, and free parking to boot!
