Stores Open On Thanksgiving 2010: Walmart, Sears And More

Last year, a handful of stores were open on Thanksgiving Day and even more stores plan to open their doors on Thanksgiving 2010.

"Thanksgiving is not as sanctified a day as it was even a few years ago," author Thomas Hine told USA Today.

Gap Inc., Banana Republic and Old Navy were among the first stores to ever offer Thanksgiving hours a few years ago, and they'll be open again this year, with most locations opening around 8 a.m.
