Numerous retail stores plan to close on Thanksgiving, reopen for Black Friday
Many major U.S. retailers are planning to close for Thanksgiving.
Target announced last year that it would no longer open on Thanksgiving. Walmart U.S. CEO John Furne told NBC’s “Today” that opening on Thanksgiving is a “thing of the past.”
“All of our associates will be able to spend time with their loved ones this year,” he said.
Customers will no longer have to skip Thanksgiving dinner to get in line at Best Buy. The retailer also said it will be closed this year.
Other stores closed on Thanksgiving include:
- Aldi
- Bed Bath & Beyond
- Home Depot
- IKEA
- JCPenney

- Macy’s
- Sam’s Club
Stores that will remain open include (some may have limited hours):
- Big Lots
- CVS
