Walmart has some unique plans for this year's Black Friday sales: They'll last practically the entire month of November as it hopes to reduce crowds at stores during the pandemic.

America's largest retailer announced plans for a "revamped Black Friday savings event," with sales over three weekends next month that will begin on its website before hitting stores a few days later. The staggered sales events are scheduled for the first, second and fourth weekends of November with hundreds of discounted items, including electronics, toys and apparel.
