REI is one retailer that is not planning to capitalize on Black Friday shopping mayhem. “For the fifth year, the Seattle-based outdoor retailer will close its stores the day after Thanksgiving -- considered one of the biggest shopping days of the year -- as part of its #OptOutside initiative,” according to USA Today. “It won't process online payments but will pay its 13,000 employees, the company announced Wednesday.”
