(WHDH) — For the third year in a row, Toys R Us is opening its doors for 30 hours straight from Thanksgiving day into Black Friday.

Some stores have been following this tradition since 2009.

However, Thanksgiving day openings have seen a backlash.

Some shopping centers and chains are keeping their doors shut to raise employee morale and focus more on Black Friday.
