TUPELO, Miss. (WCBI) – From Bath & Body Works, to Belk’s to JCPenney, people started shopping at Barnes Crossing in Tupelo early Black Friday morning. Employees said that this is one of the mall’s busiest times of the year.

“Good sales, good deals basically because I just spent $105, and I got a bag full of stuff,” said Aja Chambers, a Black Friday Shopper.

Some Tupelo Stores opened as early as 5 a.m.

And many of Friday morning’s shoppers came in with a plan.

“Definitely. I went to Old Navy, and they had like a half off for all of their jeans and I bought a couple of jeans,” said Addalyn West, a Black Friday Shopper from Mantachie.

“I got a little puffer vest, and I think a pair of pajama pants and a pair of pajama shorts,” said Brooklyn Winters, a shopper from Fulton, Miss.
