Shoppers at Asheville’s Tanger Outlets turned out before sunrise, braving the cold not just for deals, but for a chance to make memories together. This year felt different—less chaos, more connection. Families like the Coys kept up their quirky tradition of hunting for matching Christmas shirts, turning bargain-hunting into a bonding ritual. Even 10-year-old Natalie was out with her relatives since 4 a.m., excited to pick out gifts as a family. For many, Black Friday here isn’t just about the discounts—it’s about togetherness. How do you and your loved ones mark the start of the holiday season? #Shopping #Asheville #BlackFriday
