In the wake of the pandemic, Thanksgiving Day has gone through a transformation in recent years. Instead of the usual lines outside large retailers on Thanksgiving Day waiting for Black Friday deals, many stores have made the decision to close their doors in order to prevent crowding and extend the holiday shopping season. This shift has become a permanent change for many retailers.
As Thanksgiving Day approaches on Thursday, November 23, 2023, it’s important to know what will be open and what will be closed on this day. Target, Walmart, Best Buy, Macy’s, Kohl’s, Nordstrom, Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, H.E.B, Whole Foods, Albertsons, Kroger, Publix, Aldi, Trader Joe’s, and Costco will all be closed for the day. However, Walgreens will keep some 24-hour locations open to meet healthcare needs, and some grocery store chains like Albertsons will have limited hours.
In addition to retail closures, federal offices, courts, post offices, and other government institutions like the DMV and local libraries will be closed for the holiday. The Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange will not be trading, and most banks branches will be closed, although online banking and ATMs will still be accessible.
Furthermore, USPS, UPS, and FedEx services will also be affected, with only specific critical delivery services remaining open.
Overall, Thanksgiving Day 2023 will see a significant number of closures, as many businesses and institutions observe the holiday. But despite these changes, the spirit of the holiday remains unchanged, with families and loved ones coming together to celebrate and give thanks.
