CHERRY HILL, N.J., and PORTLAND, Maine, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- To serve customer needs, TD Bank, America's Most Convenient Bank®, will deliver its unique brand of WOW! customer service by opening many of its 1,000-plus retail locations at 6:00 a.m. on "Black Friday," November 27.

Black Friday -- the day after Thanksgiving -- is considered the busiest shopping day of the year. Many leading retailers open earlier than usual on Black Friday, and many shoppers expect to launch their shopping expeditions at dawn that day or earlier. Customers visiting the stores early will receive a free shopping bag to carry all their Black Friday deals while quantities last.

Opening at 6:00 a.m. enables TD Bank to serve the needs of its customers a full hour and a half earlier than these stores' regular opening time of 7:30 a.m. Shoppers can prepare for the hectic shopping day by stopping by any TD Bank to complete necessary transactions before some retail stores even open. Customers and non-customers can bring the change they were saving -- extra money to buy gifts -- to the bank's Penny Arcade machine and have it counted for free.

Shoppers can also grab the TD Bank Gift Card -- a Visa® gift card that is gift-boxed and ready to give. The season's most convenient gift, the TD Bank Gift Card, is perfect for anyone; there is no cost for wrapping, and best of all there is no purchase fee. Unlike gift cards available from specific merchants, TD Bank Gift Card is accepted at millions of locations worldwide and enables recipients to buy what they want, when they want, wherever Visa debit cards are accepted.

The pre-dawn Black Friday opening reinforces TD Bank's commitment to convenient, full-service branch banking. Many of TD Bank stores are open for business 361 days a year. Thanksgiving Day is one of only four holidays throughout the year on which TD Bank closes; the other holidays are Christmas, New Year's Day, and Easter.
