Which Stores Are Open On Thanksgiving and When Do They Open On Black Friday?<\/h2>\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Updated: 11.21.16 1:24 PM EDT By consumerist.com <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Thanksgiving is usually the big day on the calendar in November, but this year the holiday took a backseat to Election Day \u2014 so much so that many people say they delayed the start of their holiday shopping until after the votes had been counted. Now here we are, with only a few days to go before Thanksgiving (and, more importantly to some folks, Black Friday); you\u2019ll need to know which stores are opening when in order to maximize your shopping efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Below is a list of more than three dozen of the nation\u2019s most popular retailers, along with information on whether that store will be open or closed on Thanksgiving, and when you can expect it to open on Black Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Note that some of these \u2014 especially the stores that are most frequently found inside of shopping malls \u2014 have hours that can vary greatly depending on location. Additionally, some of the data is based on information we\u2019ve been able to cobble together from store websites or by calling around to multiple locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

If we get more precise information about the retailers with vague holiday hours, or if we hear from additional retailers about their hours, this list will be updated right up until we call it quits for the long weekend on Wednesday afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

In recent years, an increasing number of retailers have started kicking off their Black Friday sales on Thanksgiving Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

But dozens of stores and even some malls, including Mall of America, are refusing to open on the holiday this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Nordstrom, Costco, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls are among the stores that will remain closed on Thanksgiving next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

BFAds has compiled a list of all the stores to remain closed on the holiday, and shared it with Business Insider. We’ll update this list as more stores reveal their holiday plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
