Target is giving its employees a longer break this Black Friday than it has in years past.

This year, Target will be open on Thanksgiving from 6 p.m. to midnight, the company said on Monday. Stores will then reopen at 6 a.m. on Friday, according to an ad first spotted by BestBlackFriday.com.

Last year, Target was open from 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day to 11 p.m. on Black Friday.

Target also announced that shoppers could get early access to Black Friday deals in stores and online for one day: Monday, November 6.

This year, Target will offer a wide range of deals on its website. The retailer is providing free shipping and returns until December 23.
