Thanksgiving Day is here and there are so many preps before friends and family arrive to celebrate. This is a government and banking holiday in the United States, which is why federal offices, courts, banks, and post offices will be closed.
However, while we expect to make some last-minute errands when it comes to serving our guests with the best, it is essential to know which stores and retailers are open or closed.
For the fifth consecutive year, Target stores will be closed on Thanksgiving.
"Once I heard from team members how much they appreciated that time with their families, it was an easy decision to make the policy permanent, and our store teams have had that time off ever since," CEO Brian Cornell said in a statement last year. Walmart and Best Buy retail stores will also be closed.
Meanwhile, Kroger hours will vary, but most stores will close early on Thanksgiving. Whole Foods will be open on modified hours.
