- Stores like Target, Walmart, and Costco will be closed again on Thanksgiving this year.
- Some stores were closed in 2020 and retailers kept doing it since.
As Thanksgiving begins, some retailers are closing their doors during the holiday.
While shoppers might miss out on early Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, some stores are continuing a trend that began during the pandemic.
Walmart was the first major store to close its doors in 2020. Target did the same in 2021 and plans to close up shop for future Thanksgivings.
While closed on Thanksgiving, some retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, Lowe's, Nordstrom, and Apple are offering early Black Friday deals you can shop online ahead of the holiday.
Here's a list of retailers that have decided to stay closed on Thanksgiving (November 23 this year) as well as the ones that are still open.
