"As a part of the military community, the Exchange understands that time with family, for both customers and associates, is a priority," said the Edwards Exchange's General Manager Mike Wiles. "An early opening at the Edwards Exchange on 'Black Friday' will allow shoppers to give thanks with loved ones and still partake in the savings."
