TENNESSEE, USA — It's Black Friday! Normally, it's one of the biggest shopping days of the year, but with COVID-19 spikes across the country, stores are scaling back.
Although the holiday shopping tradition looks different this year, there are still many ways to shop.
Many stores are welcoming in-person shoppers with added COVID-19 precautions including mask requirements, increased cleanings, and limiting the number of shoppers in a store at the same time.
Early Friday morning, shoppers lined up in masks for Black Friday shopping in Sevierville, Tenn.
