'kentucky for kentucky' has only been selling online since the pandemic hit in march.

Whit: "it's a lot better experience than the in- store black friday because there's no lines, you can shop from you pj's at home."

The c-d-c recommends shopping online black friday and beyond and using contactless services like curbside pick-up.

And shopping in open-air markets...staying six-feet away from others and wearing a mask.

'peggy's gifts and accessories' is selling online and in-person.

C1 3 peggy queen says even with the pandemic.

She's getting community support and expects a smooth black friday.

Peggy: "we've been blessed."

Peggy say the shoppers who have come into the store during the pandemic.

Have been respectful of the mask requirements and social distancing guidelines.

Peggy: "i really don't know what to expect.

I never think anybody is coming on black friday or small business saturday which is always a joke, they come.

I don't think it's going to be as crazy this year at all."

Fayette mall in lexington is scheduled to be open seven a-m to nine p-m.

Walmart is set to open at 5 a.m.

And close at 11 p.m.

And target from seven- to-eleven.
