Here’s What Stores Are Open (and Closed) on Thanksgiving 2018

Despite an annual public outcry, people spend a lot of time at the store on Thanksgiving.

Some are hunting for last minute items for their Thanksgiving dinners. Some are hoping to get a head start on Black Friday deals. But it’s always a roll of the dice whether the retailer you’re planning to visit will be open.

It’s a divisive topic among corporations. Some see the day as a chance to double down on eager holiday shoppers. Others feel it’s more important to allow employees to spend time with their families on a day that has traditionally been reserved for that.

Here’s a look at which stores will—and won’t—be open on Thanksgiving 2018.
