More Info: Bleary-eyed shoppers will need to get up even earlier than in years past to get a head start on holiday shopping Friday. In its second Black Friday since opening in North Idaho, Kohl’s department store will once again open its doors at 4 a.m. to welcome shoppers eager for bargains, and getting a jump on other large retailers by at least an hour. “It’s a clever little marketing ploy,” said Hal Hunter, operations manager for the store. “Hopefully people will come here first.”

Question: If you shopped this morning, what was your best bargain purchase?
