Skip the Mall, Hit the Beach
Corey Lights Up promises to be a relaxing Black Friday with food, music and deals.

Black Friday is coming, but why hit up the malls and fight through the masses when you can do something a bit more relaxing.
This Black Friday, Corey Avenue is holding Corey Lights Up, an antithesis to Black Friday Sales.
While there'll be sales going on, with 17 merchants on the strip holding specials, savings are not the main point to go.Â
