Many New Yorkers are planning to skip Black Friday and do all their holiday shopping over the weekend — from home.
“No crowds and no lines,” Charmaine Blake, 41, said, as she shopped in Herald Square Wednesday. Terrance Shields, 33, said Friday’s “a time to spend with your family and not out shopping . . . with all these crazy people.”
Analysts said Black Friday will be “muted” due to early deals.
