Tampa Bay 28's Robert Boyd spoke to participating businesses before the event and broke down everything you need to know.
Dee told Boyd the Sunrise Sale actually fits perfectly into his schedule.
“Yeah, for a lot of folks this is a novelty, right- to get up, wear your PJs, go shopping- but for me it’s a normal occurrence. I get up at two o’clock in the morning every day, so this is actually like a lunchtime sale for me,” said Dee.
