Black Friday shoppers get off to fast start in Palm Beach County
Black Friday is here! Hold onto your purses, wallets and walking shoes as the holiday shopping season is officially off to a fast start.
Indeed, there are three things that Palm Beach County residents — and visitors — love to do this time of year: eat, drink and shop. And our county accommodates all three quite well.
Shopping local is a favorite past-time in Palm Beach County; especially Holiday shopping. From Jupiter to Wellington to Boca Raton to Palm Beach, the wide diversity of retail stores means that everyone can find a gift for that special someone this season. And maybe have time to grab a bite and take a picture with Santa too.

Tens of thousands of shoppers were out Friday to land any early deal available. Because what Palm Beach County truly boasts in abundance is shopping, America's (unofficial) favorite past-time.
To be sure sure, broadly, many Palm Beach County residents and visitors view shopping with the same fervor as say, football. Every "Mall", from Palm Beach Gardens to Boca Raton, as well as every "Avenue", from Atlantic Avenue to Congress Avenue will be teeming with shoppers for the next month.
