(Washington, D.C.) -- A lot of big retailers in the U.S. are opening early for Black Friday. It comes as more holiday shoppers are expected to hit the stores this year.  

Best Buy, Target and Walmart are among the major chains with big sales events this year. A lot of small retailers will have sales events tomorrow, when the annual Small Business Saturday initiative takes place across the U.S.  

American Express started Small Business Saturday in 2010 and it blew up the following year with participation in all 50 states.
