Note to employees of Simon Property Group's 250+ malls across the country: Your butt's coming to work on Thanksgiving. All Simon malls will open at 8pm on Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 28, including our own King of Prussia Mall, which will remain open until 10pm on Black Friday, November 29. That's right, 26 hours uninterrupted holiday shopping mania!

On one hand, it seems cruel to tear mall employees away from their families on Thanksgiving. Then again, having to work is a solid excuse to escape the family dysfunction that accompanies the holiday season, and by 8pm, everyone's in a tryptophan coma, anyway. We want to know: Will you shop the KOP Mall on Thanksgiving? Why or why not? To the poll!
