If you have the gumption (and the stomach for it) the day after Thanksgiving is the symbolic gun shot marking the beginning of the holiday season. Arden Fair Mall will open its doors at 6 a.m. and close at 10 p.m. throughout the Thanksgiving weekend. If you make it to the mall between 6 a.m.–10 a.m. there will be a scavenger hunt, discounts for early bird shoppers and free coffee. Arden Mall, Arden Fair Mall, 1689 Arden Way, Sacramento; ardenfair.com

The Folsom Premium Outlets will kick-off the shopping madness starting at midnight Friday. This allows for shopping shortly after all the eating and relaxing on Thanksgiving Day. Stores participating in the midnight openings include, Nine West, Guess, Vans and Lane Bryant. Folsom Outlets, 13000 Folsom Blvd, Folsom. premiumoutlets.com
