These 9 stores will be open on Thanksgiving Day

Here’s where you can shop if you need last-minute items for Thanksgiving and it’s too late to order online.
With restrictions on large crowds and social distancing guidelines, Black Friday and holiday shopping are slightly different this year. Many stores won’t be open on Thanksgiving Day for early in-person shoppers.
Fortunately, we’ve compiled a list of businesses that plan on keeping their doors open if you need to head in for some last-minute items.
Store | Thanksgiving Day hours |
---|---|
Bass Pro Shops | 8 a.m. to local closing time |
Big Lots | 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. |
Cabela’s | 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. |
Dollar General | 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. |
Family Dollar | Hours vary by store |
Kroger | Hours vary by store |
Meijer | 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. |
Rite Aid | 24-hour locations open |
Walgreens | 24-hour locations open |
Since store openings may vary by location, be sure to call your local store to confirm store hours. And if you’re venturing out for some in-person shopping, be sure to bring a face mask or other PPE.
