Here’s What Stores Are Open and Closed on Thanksgiving 2019

For many Americans, Thanksgiving is a day to spend with family, friends and food (and sometimes football).

But what happens if your aunt forgets to bring her turkey baster, or you run out of dish soap, or the apple pie burns just as your guests are arriving? While dozens of major retailers traditionally opt to close their doors, many businesses stay open on Thanksgiving. That means you can pick up last-minute essentials, including the baster, soap and a store-bought pie. If you’re interested in exploring deals, you can also get an early start on your Black Friday shopping. Stores like Target, Bed Bath and Beyond and Kohl’s will start to offer their big sales on Thursday.
