Most years, in the 24 hours after the indulgence of a Thanksgiving dinner, many residents in Flagstaff and across the country indulge in a different celebration, that of Black Friday. Across the city, those who do come out for Black Friday might be protecting themselves by wearing masks and staying somewhat distant from other shoppers and store staff members. That will be the case at the Flagstaff Mall, wrote Mall General Manager Bonnie Bouschet in an email. The Flagstaff Mall has been requiring visitors to wear masks and social distance since it reopened after the initial shutdown earlier this year, and Bouschet said it will be no different during this Black Friday. Still, Bouschet said the crisis around COVID-19 could have real implications for the mall and in-person shopping generally.
